Photo Description:
This is the animal to which scientist believe through DNA that domestic house cats originated from. This one is still wild however. He is much longer and more lanky and his orbits and eyeballs are almost twice the size of a typical cat. A true night hunter.

The event of the existing crisis will be decisive in the opinion of mankind of the practicability of our federal system of government. Great is the stake placed in our hands; great is the responsibility which must rest upon the people of the United States. Let us realize the importance of the attitude in which we stand before the world. Let us exercise forbearance and firmness. Let us extricate our country from the dangers which surround it and learn wisdom from the lessons they inculcate."

Shot it with a .375 soft, no time to eject and get a solid in. The exit side was pretty hammered :(

A good Taxi should be able to sew it up hopefully.

There are hundreds of millions of gun owners in this country, and not one of them will have an accident today. The only misuse of guns comes in environments where there are drugs, alcohol, bad parents, and undisciplined children. Period. - Unlce Ted
