Art imitating life...Or is it the other way around?

i especially like the first one as it has a greyhound in it. like their relatives, the saluki, they are noble animals. the second has a few cur 'pi' dogs, below the cheetah, which would not have been much good hunting lions. though i have a greyhound living with me (the tattooed dog i referred to under my avatar) i am completely objective of course.

..and the two men in the first scrambling up the tree to join the monkey to avoid the lion is amusing. the second hasn't got a monkey. shame.

i noted also the hunting cheetah. many people are not aware that cheetah were in fact domesticated early on and used as hunting animals. they are slightly faster than greyhounds in the short run, but slower in the long runs.
