    wiki/Big_Merino

    The Big Merino is a 15.2 metres (50 ft) tall concrete statue of a merino ram located in Goulburn, New South Wales, Australia. It is the tallest statue in Australia and Oceania.

    It was modelled after Rambo, a stud ram that lived on a local property.

    The Big Merino was built near the Hume Highway in 1985. In 1992 the highway rerouted to bypass the town of Goulburn, which resulted in 40 fewer busloads of tourists visiting the Big Merino each day. On 26 May 2007, the Big Merino was moved to a location closer to the new Hume Highway to increase visitor numbers, and is now located near the freeway interchange at a service station.

    Still I wonder, if stacks of coal are taller than 15m … :/
