Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: Ferociously realistic: Wildlife artist Paul Harpley is seen with his painting The Snow Leopard, which is so true to life it looks as though it could pounce on him at any moment. Harpley, a naturalist and illustrator for the Metro Zoo, was commissioned to do the painting to help raise money for the Sir Edmund Hillary Foundation.
