(Beautiful) new leopard species found in Borneo.

Isn't he (or she?) amazing?! But I had to laugh, because the picture - the eyes, in particular - reminded me of a trip we took to the Columbus Zoo when Matthew was much younger. We were standing right outside the young leopard's enclosure, in which only that thick plexiglass kept the animal from its "lunch" (us). I was holding Matthew facing the leopard, who was crouched down, watching him very closely. Suddenly the leopard began stalking Matthew. He lunged at the glass several times, crawled back up some fake? tree trunks, then turned around and did it again. I have to say it was funny as hell. Matthew had no clue. LOL
