Wagin- The Big Ram

Starting to get cold of a night in Wagin , the cube fire was cranked up, with approval from Billy.

The Big Ram or Giant Ram ( which also has giant balls ) a tourist attraction, was erected in Wetlands Park in 1985. The sculptor was Andrew Hickson, who constructed the ram from fibreglass over a steel frame. The ram stands 9 metres (30 ft) tall, 13 m (43 ft) long and 6 m (20 ft) wide, and weighs 4 tonnes (3.94 long tons; 4.41 short tons). Thousands of tourists visit the park each year to view the ram. The sculpture is the second largest of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere.
