The real question is.

Why men evolve to grow beards?
What is the science of having a beard?

lion's mane, makes them appear bigger, and it protects their throat during battle with other male lions.

so what about beards on men. sorry for derailing thread.

Perhaps used for the same thing? Also, usually the longer the beard the older one is (since it takes time to grow) so it might be a way to show hierarchy, male dominance, wisdom, respect elders? I'm just throwing out some guesses.
