505 gibbsGreat post Kathi, the leopard from Namibia (I think further in the article they referred to him as "Tyson") is unbelievable, what a beast. I also find it interesting that they were not described by skull size, rather weight.

I guess it shows they don't study the record books or more accurately, the modern ones..... The old ones are quoted there.
FWIW Iran is supposed to have some real porkers by way of leopards and maybe one of our other members might know something more of that?

505 gibbsI was surprised to not see anything on Ethiopia as I have heard from several (first hand), that there are some toads.

shakariI think they also seem to have a higher percentage of black leopards up there as well.....

465H&HMy advise to you all is to hunt the smallest leopard that you can find. That way the mauling you will take will be less serious than if it was a really big cat.

Do you give the same advice about lion hunts?

Absolutely, but don't tell Lane or Aaron as I don't want any more hate mail than I already get!

Wow that cat is huge. All of the cats on that site are giants, but this one's skull looks enormous.

465H&HI have deleted my post above as I didn't want anyone to think I was serious. I have the utmost respect for both Lane and Aaron and I should not have posted that. Lane and Aaron my appologies.

505 gibbsI am sure Lane & Aaron can find humor in themselves, sometimes we could use a little more of it around here.
