Giant ram Bart is the great pride of the continent (9 photos)
Everything about this animal is huge. And beautiful, too.
A giant ram that settled in the Australian city of Wagin in 1985 has become an element of the local Big Things network in the provincial areas of Australia.
Although, unlike many of the continent's bizarre giants, this ram is anatomically harmonious.
Sculptor Andrew Hickson was commissioned to create the ram to commemorate the area's role in the continent's wool industry. Standing at almost 10 metres tall, the curly-coated ungulate is second only to the giant Goulburn Merino, which is probably the largest ram on the planet.
What Bart lacks in height, however, he makes up for in the size of his reproductive organs. While the Goulburn ram has no visible genitals, this proud ram sports a rather impressive pair of testicles between his enormous hind legs, which have become a popular backdrop for photographs.

So this part of the sheep's body itself has become an attraction, since the genitals are very rarely used in installations of such impressive sizes. The ram even stands on a pedestal so that tourists can freely walk under the belly and appreciate the magnificence of its dimensions.
A trip to the city cannot be considered complete without touching the beautiful, visiting this landmark and taking a photo against its backdrop.
