It's an important part of a real safari to find a lion... So this is also a safari about lions.

Your task:

  • Find a sculpture which shows a lion or its head.
  • Take a picture of the sculpture. The picture should show, that you have been at the sculpture personally, by showing yourself, a trackable or your GPS-device.
  • Add the coordinates of your found to your log.
  • Optionally: do you have any background information about the sculpture? Add this to your log.
  • Every lion should be logged only once, each account should log only one lion.

We are looking only for sculptures, which show 3-dimensional lions. Illustrations, e.g. in arms, are not allowed. Real lions are not allowed either.

The picture in this listing shows a lion which is part of the "Remscheider Löwenparade" , there are much more lions in Remscheid which belong to this parade. It's located at N 51° 10.853 E 007° 10.395.

Please use this format for your coordinates when writing the log: "N/S DD MM.MMM E/W DDD MM.MMM" (e.g. "N 48 00.000 E 008 00.000"), to enable the safari cache map to recognize and parse your log correctly!

Zwar keine Skulptur, aber das Wappen des Schloßes Adolfsburg in Oberhundem. Ich hoffe das es in Ordnung ist, sonst kann ich gerne einen Nachtrag machen. Viiele Grüße aus dem oberen Hundemtal. TFTC 🤗

Nein, das ist nicht der Braunschweiger Löwe, sondern sein Bruder!
Gesehen im Innenhof zur Basilika von Weingarten.

Die am weitesten entfernte Kopie [des Braunschweiger Löwen] befindet sich im baden-württembergischen Weingarten, etwa 600 Kilometer südlich der Löwenstadt.

Hier in Bayern hat gefühlt jeder Kleinhäusler so einen Löwen vorn dran. Liegt wahrscheinlich daran dass im Wappen Löwen vorkommen. TFTC
