Is this a lion?

[Cherokeester]

Soooo... I was gone and my wife was home. This is in my backyard about 75 yards away. I know the picture is small but some of you cat experts may be able to tell what it is. My dogs were going nuts, (I have a Great Pyrenees) and my wife snapped this picture with her Ipad. Anybody think this might be a lion? It is too big for bobcat and she said it had a long tail. Look in the upper center of the picture and zoom. The little black dot below its head would be the size of a house cat for comparison at that distance.

I would say yes....

I can't tell anything from the picture. But something that large, a long tail is pretty distinctive. Sounds likely.

Can't see anything. Foiled by Apple again.

Did it looks like this by chance?
