    Man , I just love big cats. Probably the coolest animals on earth. If I were a Hindu, that's what I'd want to be reincarnated as, if not another human that is.

    As much as I love Leopards.....that wasnt much of a kill.
    I have seen monitor lizards the same size as that little juvenile crocodile.

    It wouldnt stand a chance in hell against that little critters mom or dad.

    Leopards are bad **** though...pound for pound no other cat is even close.
    I had the privilege of getting to interact with quite a few big cats at the place that held my big pythons while I was moving to my new house. The monster male lion and male tiger were pussycats and loved to wrestle, but the female leopard disliked big men....she went at me when I tried to walk up to her.
    Luckily the lady holding the leash was pretty strong herself .....needless to say I never tried to bond with her again :)

    The first thing that struck me was not the images but the photographer's name. Then it occurred to me that I remember a guy with this name from high school in Williamsburg, VA. Since Hal Brindley is kind of an usual name, I followed some of the links and stories about him from the website and have verified that this is him. First time I heard something about him in 17 years. Small world, huh?

    I wonder if, when the cat tried to eat that tough critter, it wondered, "What in the world was I thinkin?"

    Cats are amazing if you take size into consideration. I'd take on a 50 lb. dog any day of the week if my life was threatened, but to take on a 50 lb. cat? Hell no.
