You need a new taxidermist!!! I'm sorry, I just noticed that it must be a new breed that I'm not familiar with, a leoprad.

Please, tell where the context of this amazing piece of "London Media" can be found.
Out of context it is indeed animal


Never mind! Found it:


"Wouldn't be spotted dead like that: This sorry leopard has been fashioned into some kind of stool or seat."

I wonder if anyone in London noticed that these teeth are not right?
A set of 20 molars for a carnivore?

It was done well but the airline ran over it with the push-out tractor, and had one of the bagroom clerks re-do it hoping Saeed wouldn't notice!

One could, put a piece of glass on top and use it as a coffee table...... or just burn it.

Saeed,

next time you get a great trophy like this, I would be glad to loan you a little bit to get better job done!

Notice Saeed said it is a leoprad, not a leopard. It is a totally different species and that is what they look like.


I hunt, not to kill, but in order not to have played golf....

SWEET...

Could you please include the name of the taxidermist so that I might have a reference for future work?

That taxidermy looks on par with some of the "fine" gunsmithing I've seen produced in the garages of enthusiasts over the years.

Remember Eric Leeton who posted some double rifle barrels he had an idiot gunsmith in Maine make for him? He posted it a couple of months ago in the double rifles section. This taxidermy was done by that gunsmith!!
Cheers,

Walter is very good at shooting animals in the nutsack!

He shot at a knogoni, and missed it. The silly kongoni did not take off as usual, but jumped a few feet and stopped again.

Walter clobbered him, and this time he REALLY took off.

We found some blood and followed it for a bit. Walter did his usual, as he stopped", saying "Here is your gun, you go after it. If I had my Blaser this thing would be DEAD now. Instead, I have to use this useless rifle of your which does not kill anything!"

I took the rifle, and we followed the bloody kongoni for quite a while before we found him.

I killed it.

Alan was there with his video camera, so I went to meet Walter as he came along in the truck, and hand him the rifle.

Alan video him walking to his kongoni, and the pictures were taken.

When I edited the video, I made sure I did not appear in that section.

Walter loved it so much, he said "Thank you! Now, why don't remove yourself from all the hunts, and make it look like I shot everything?"

I said "Roy will tell on us!"
"Typical of that old man! Spoil sport!"

Hey, that "leoprad" would look perfect sitting next to that hideous LDE mount (the one stapled to the 4' x 6' plywood board) Anton posted a few weeks ago. They're made for each other! Hehehehehe!
