This is one of David Shepherd's 'Gold Collection'; Started in 1992 with 'Cheetah'
A silkscreen was produced once a year, the edition size was always kept to a minimum, and
due to the 'hands-on' process of printing, no two copies are exactly the same.
The silkscreens can perhaps be regarded as being somewhere between a signed,
limited edition print and an original painting.
In Africa, the Big Five game animals are the lion, leopard, rhinoceros (both south-central black and southern white species), elephant, and Cape buffalo.
The term was coined by big-game hunters, and refers to the five most difficult animals in Africa to hunt on foot, but is now also widely used by safari tour operators.
The 1990 and later releases of South African rand banknotes feature a different big-five animal on each denomination.
Each of the big five are examples of charismatic megafauna, featuring prominently in popular culture, and are among the most famous of Africa's large animals.
Countries where all can be found include Angola, Botswana, Zambia, Uganda, Namibia, South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Zimbabwe, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda and Malawi
