Jaws

The movie challenge.
This is The Maiwand Lion which stands proudly as a war memorial in one of Reading's parks. He weighs 16 tons and is one of the worlds largest cast iron statues.The sculptor was George Blackall Simonds and rumours persist that he committed suicide on learning that the lion's gait was incorrectly that of a domestic cat. In fact, he made careful observations on lions and the stance was anatomically correct despite various African ex-pats disagreeing.
