[the_old_crowd] Re: FAQ Poll question finally answered

[JoAnna Wahlund]

We know that James' Animagi form was a stag, but do we know that his 
Patronus is one as well? Has JKR ever said that a wizard's Patronus is also 
their Animagi form (or vice versa)?

Also, I believe it's been stated that "no two wizards have the same 
Patronus" - perhaps that's no two *living* wizards have the same one?
