Jason, while I agree that the image needs adjusting, I would also suspect it will still be rejected for stock. Stock agencies get LOTS of animal pics, most from zoos. Think about it, most everyone at the zoo has a camera with them. The images that stand out (and sell) are the ones that appear to have been taken in the wild. Your image shows a large, blue wall behind the animal and so proves its a zoo shot. Go to Alamy or one of the other larger sites and search Lion, you'll see what I mean.
