This is a powerful animal, and a herd could easily cooperate to defend against predators, but...they just don't cooperate, usually.

He is probably the greatest collector in the world of all things Dracula, both Stoker's vampire and historical Prince Vlad III Dracula. :)
I am photographed here next to Mr. Teodor' exhibit "Dracula", in 2006.
My friend, Teodor Ghiata-Melnic (84), founding member of the Romanian Philatelists Association, next to his award-winnning exhibit "Dracula". He is probably the greatest collector in the world of all things Dracula, both Stoker's vampire and historical Prince Vlad III Dracula. :)
We have exchanged many cool items, mainly Dracula stamps and maximum cards from me, and WWF and other very nice maximum cards from him.
The Romanian Philatelists Association honored him with this cover, created specially for him and published by Romfilatelia.
He kindly sent me one such cover, addressed to me "with esteem and love".
Thank you very much, Mr.Teodor! Likewise! :)

I sent this postcard, with some other, to my friend Ye Choh San in Malaysia. He took care of the stamp and the postmark. Thank you again!

Postcards and stamps, mainly featuring mammals and birds but Dorincard also has other creations
and interests he likes to share.
His enthusiasm for Maximum cards (a postcard and a similar themed stamps sent through the
postal system) shines through.
He shows how he gets the right card, stamp and postmark together.
Visiting his site you will also learn things about the natural world told with a dry sense of humour,
possibly with a play on words, and a unique style of headings.
Topical and informative both for the enthusiast and casual visitor.
