Just took delivery on my Leopard I shot back in 2004 in Zim. The delay was mostly my doing, but I think it was worth the wait. A couple shots:

Wolfgar, I shot it in 04 In Zim in the Gwanda area. We had five baits out and two females hitiing two. After four days this one hit a Zebra bait.
He came onto the bait just at dusk. Spent about 1 1/2 hrs in the blind first night. No artifical light, 50-60 yrds used a 350 Rem mag with 225 gr. nosler partition. He weighed about 200 lbs. and is 8'1" nose to tail.

The Ph is Wayne Clark. It was on his family's ranch, however I'm not sure they still have it.

That's a big cat. Very nice. I'm torn between cat taxidermy with or without prey species included.

What a toad of a cat! Very Very Nice!
The taxidermy work is exceptional and your taxidermist is a artist for sure. He was well worth the wait.

That is really nice. I toyed with the idea of having mine mounted with a duiker, but didn't in the end.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

The leopard mount is top class. You can still see same quality mounts by Vaning & Vaning in India.
