The Royal Tudor Beast: The Seymour Panther
The Seymour Panther is one of 10 beasts that stand guard on the Moat Bridge of Hampton Court Palace and has represented the Tudor dynasty for hundreds of years. The Panther was gifted to his third wife, Jane Seymour, by King Henry VIII to celebrate their wedding in 1536. Seymour died after giving birth to a son, and is the only of Henry VIII's six wives who were buried in the same tomb after his death.
