I am not sure what :Class is.

Also, in your example, AfricanLion is not a class but an individual. 
This is not quite right for this example. Consider for instance what 
you would do for the Lion class: you cannot make it an instance of the 
Animal class since, among other things, you won't be able to say that 
AfricanLion is a Lion.

I am not sure. I think either solution is correct. I would lean towards 
the seeAlso simply because we don't have enough information to say that 
the resources are equivalent (by using owl:sameAs)
