Maybe it is a gay pride . Great photo, well caught moment - but a lot of the comments are oddly - what are the words I am looking for? Anthrocentric >
? Anthropomorphising?  It seems way off the mark to see this as an example in nature of homosexual love. As one other comment observes, this is an example of brutal imposition of hierarchy within the pride. If we must find a human equivalent it would be the homosexual rape used by some gangsters to terrorise victims. It is what we mean when we describe such people as behaving like animals. Can an image like this be used as an example of what Plato wanted to justify?
Usually we show strong pity for animal victims - like Cecil - but here we want to identify the pleasure of the dominant lion with current fashions in the USA and western Europe and totally ignore the suffering of the victim.
That might be the real message of this photo.
