Mark, as a fan of the Val Kilmer/Michael Douglas film "The Ghost and The Darkness", it's my understanding that the stuffed remains of the lions are on display in Chicago. Do you know anything about that?? Have you ever seen them?
SB - 12th Street is right on the money. Every kid that grew up within 50 miles of Chicago went to the Field Museum on a field trip for school. Of course, when you are older and see those lions today, the first thing you say is; "Wow, they looked a lot bigger when I was in third grade!" Here is some great pics I found of the two lions...
