LAZY LEOPARD

Sprawled out on top of a log, this sleeping leopard takes a relaxing break from his daily routine. Sleeping straight through the afternoon without stirring an inch, he appears content as he lounges about in the sun. The Javan leopard was captured by structural engineer Hannu Soini, 35, of Halsua, Finland, after he managed to take a picture of the sleeping beauty at the Bali Safari Park in Indonesia. 'When I saw the leopard it instantly reminded me of a napping domestic cat,' says Hannu
