Helluva big cat. Well done.


On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

More like a rugby front rower! Much tougher than Tyson - particularly an All Black Wink

I grew up from my earliest memory with my dad's Indian leopard on the wall - 7 ft 6 inches long. A big leopard never ceases to get my heart racing!

It must have grown up on steroids - I never realized the Indian Leopard attained such a size.
