Default Big B.C. Lion

A photo of Derrick Passey's B.C. cougar, taken in the SouthWest corner of that province. This cat was a big one, 175 lbs, the largest I have dealt with. Green scored, the skull measured high enough to put it into the B. & C. record book, but it has of yet not been officially scored. This cat had a very nice hide as well, no major scars or chew marks (maybe no one dared chew on him.) A beauty of a lion and a very fun project.

Thanks for the post. That is one well done big kitty.

Is there any website describing how the cat met it's demise.

Or was it a highway or railway kill?

Sheepnut on here shot it. I'm sure he'd be happy to tell you the story.

No, he said he hasn't scored it yet. He's got a big melon, whatever the score.
