This is somewhat of a follow-on to "The Ultimate Football Game!" pic of Dagger. I mentioned that he would sometimes just pick the ball up and carry it back to where he wanted it, so here's the photographic proof for you. :) He was amazingly smart.

This is also a great "general viewing" picture of Dagger. With photos, it's often very had to have a relative perspective of size and all that. That's true even in this picture, but if there's any picture that shows of Dagger body-size and musculature, it's this one. He was a big kitty, and this picture somewhat shows that off. Also, most cougars have the cream-colored fur on their undersides. Dagger's was grey, as can be seen here on his chest.

Dagger was a smart and beautiful, and IMHO, this picture shows off both of those aspects quite well.

This picture was taken 11-Jan-04. The image was taken with a Canon EOS 10D and the EF 28-200mm f/3.5-5.6 USM lens. The original was taken at full frame of 3072x2048x24b, ISO eqv 400, 1/125 shutter, f/5.6. This image was shrunken down for space conservation.
