The Bearcat

[Bryan Sherman]

I like the article linked to from bearcatnews regarding the open forums on
the Bearcat image (score a few points for the admin):

They want to try to reconcile the two Bearcat images... the mascot and the
logo.

While our team wasn't named for it, how many folks know there is an actual
animal that is called the Bearcat? It's from Southeast Asia and is also
called the Binturang. Didn't the Cincinnati Zoo used to have one (and do
they still have one)?

Here are some pictures I sound, the first one is a really nice shot:

Looks like the logo is more like the "real" Bearcat than the mascot is.
