Talk:Nemean lion

message: The picture is wrong! that's Kerberos, not the nemean lion. First, it has three heads instead of one, and the tail is a snake. Woah, thats Kerberos! NOT THE LION!
:You're right. I've replaced the image with one that I took myself. --Zaqarbal 16:14, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

message: How could Herodotus talk about the lions' extinction ca 100 BCE when he died some 300 years prior to that?  The sentence may be poorly edited.  --gejyspa (talk) 20:07, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
