You have to upload it on a site like imageshack, than copy the url and use it here, along with the code for posting the image.

This is sad, hunting these animals, it would be just as easy to dart the animal and weigh then and take measurements without killing off great genes, even the ones that are not great genes are taken care of by normal animal life (fighting, starving, ect.) hunting just for sport is idiotic and should be stopped.

Don't know if this male was posted.

Thanks to the hard work and unyielding determination of PH Shaun Buffee, I nailed a notorious leopard that had been nick-named the "Musomberi Monster" in Zimbabwe's Bubye (pronounced "Booby") Valley Conservancy two weeks ago.

The leopard taped 7 feet 6 inches with a 16 7/8 skull and weighed an estimated 180 to 190 pounds as judged by Shaun and another PH, Mark Barker. My hunting companions, brothers Dawson and Garrett Gamble, are both on weight lifting programs at their high school and know what 185 pounds feels like from bench pressing that weight (185 is the standard for college recruiting… how many reps can you do at 185?). They both said the cat was "at least" that heavy.

By the look of the felines face, he still looks rather young. I don't believe this was a canned hunt, they are wild I think.

Ceritfied and measured 95 kilo persian leopars severly injured died in Iran....Too sad, but what a huge male.

„95 kg Persian leopard from Caspian forests of Tonkabon will be euthanized due to several injuries and being paralyzed.

The leopard had several bullets in body and one of the recent ones had caused the paralyzation of the hind feet. Moreover, the leopard had lost a paw due to a gin trap. This is the 7th leopard known to be killed in Iran in the past few weeks, showing the rapid pace of moving toward extinction of this magnificent subspecies. Conflict with human and road accidents are among the most important threats.”

Hello Marc!
There is an facebook acount named Persian Leopard Project and they send me notiifcation with all the news regardin their natuve leopard. I took with copy paste from their link the part in english translated from farsi. And they clearly say it that the fatal injured leopard weighted 95 kilos. And if you look carefully on some pics, the unfortunately animal is truly massive built.
Regards
