Talk:Ampelos

Cryptid
This
 * Claudius Aelianus in the "Characteristics of Animals" write that there was a leopard called the Ampelus, it was not like the other leopards and had no tail. If it was seen by women it affected them with an unexpected ailment.

needs to be shunted to a separate article focused on it as a cryptid, pending some source claiming that it's a misunderstanding of the mythological figure (the topic here) instead of a cat (which would be a separate topic in a separate article). — Llywelyn II   01:15, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
