A lion-like stone bench

This bench is located in my home town, Shaoyang city, Hunan province, China. I can't say if the animal element in this bench is the lion, because in China tranditions, there is a mythical creatrure named Qilin(麒麟) which resembles lions. And according to most Chinese folk tales, Qilin is one of the guardians in the heaven.
