Australia's Big Cat - a hand sketch

[Ian Thomas]

Going thru a bunch of old papers that came my way.
Here's a hand drawn image of the Big Cat from 1998. "Sugarloaf Road". Anyone happen to know where that might be? There's a Mount Sugarloaf in the high country someplace.

Anyway.
Question is, what is it? viz, If you came across the animal itself with the features shown, what would you say? Cat? Dog? Something else?

There are several places called Mt Sugarloaf, one in the Cathedral Ranges, locally it is a nickname for Mt Piper near Broadford there is a one near Bendigo (which I think is in a National Park) and one in NSW.

Ta. Cathedral Ranges near Healesville? They'd be the best fit - Nev Smart was based at Euroa. Vaguely recall I met him one time donkey's years ago, when just a kid.
