The mane is the term, when speaking of a horse or lion, used to describe the line of hair along the spine of the neck, starting behind the ears and ending just above the withers. When the horse/lion is born, the mane is a short, stiff, upright row of hair, not unlike a zebra's, but as the horse/lion ages the mane grows out and softens.

Mane is the name of several communes in France:

• Mane, in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence département
• Mane, in the Haute-Garonne département

Mane also refers to a people in western Africa:

• Mane, of the Atlantic coast.
