Is Lions Eating A Carcass Inappropriate?

So I have many images of lions eating a calf carcass and wonder if Fine Art America is okay with this type of image? I calves were already dead so there was no life and death struggle going on but am not sure about posting.
I would really appreciate everyone's feedback.
Thanks

I'm sure FAA will have no problem with it.

After the gallery of masturbation images I witnessed earlier, I imagine you'll be fine.

Will they be using proper napkins? I can't abide bad table manners... ;)

Lol Joe, and you went through the whole gallery? ;)

I saw the whole thing, Melissa.
I was looking for the artistic merit. I'm always one to give the benefit of the doubt.

I always miss the good stuff! Lions having a nice meal I would think would be fine.

I'm pretty sure it will be fine...that's the circle of life so to speak. Just not sure if anybody would want something like that hanging on their wall. I have quite a few images of that nature (no pun intended) but only have one in my FAA galleries because I just don't think many people would want that. If it was for stock or image licensing then that's another story.

I had no idea !!
Edit....
Link removed. Thanks,Abbie.

How informative !!

Totally graphic..........no filters, no nofink.

 

I think it will be fine but I am not sure if there is a market for it. Probably a niche for everything though. Good luck with it

sure, hang in dining room if you have teens. It will fit right in.

When I was in high school my mother asked me if I had noticed a visiting neighbor had been staring at me. Nope, why? You were having a piece of ham fro an after school snack that cold have been dinner to her whole family of four.

If you think it is appropriate,.it is. If you don't think it is appropriate,. it isn't. Don't let others decide the fate of your creations..

 

Probably no different that a person eating a hamburger, just on a different level.

It might upset the vegetarians.

Is nature inappropriate ?

It would be of interest to me. It is 100% natural. Don't worry about the "softies" that may not like it.

I know Mengelsen has one similar to what you describe not sure how many of those he has sold, but he sells a lot of prints.

I see far worse on the news every day. And yet people tend to find the natural day to day life and death cycle in the animal world "offensive".

though i'm not sure who the market is for that. you would really have to love red fresh meat, to want it hanging in the dining room.

The market might be for people on a diet. One look and they no longer are hungry.

National Geographic norm... there are probably plenty of images of animal eating each other on here from the big places and others.

The same as humans eating chicken legs, wings, etc.

As long as they are wearing clothes.

Thanks everyone for all your comments and support! And for quite a few good chuckles. I'm going to let 'er rip.......so to speak.

Actually, JC, I thought she was talking about a specific person's account...my mistake...

I wonder if it was the same guy who posted here for a couple days not too long ago. He had one of those, um, shots as his avatar, no less. Classy.
