Just watched a preview of the new big cat movie, staring me and the girl that had her arm eaten in the tiger king, preview in the big cat thread ?

Got it on vhs video somewhere, great movie

Preview of the up coming film, notice the girl that had her arm eaten in the tiger king, no one has been closer than her ??

Only one thing to repeat here, I don’t block people I don’t report people never have and never will, if you got put on the naughty step you managed it all by yourself ?

Can’t make the link work just type into google ?

For someone with so many questions you really should take time to have a go on the podcast, it’s not that secret I just don’t put lots of info up here as I don’t want to ruin things for the people who put a lot more into it than me so I pass it on to them and if they want to go public they can, they have used me and my bits in the podcast and ,documentary it’s all there in the interviews and the links for you to just read and listen to ??
-
Definitely agree, I never really payed more than a passing interest until I saw one myself, have tried the perfume, carcasses and even cat nip, think some one had a carcass taken in front of the camera but no camera trigger, to be honest I,m not sure on what format the documentary is on, I,ve been asked to help a couple of times turned up and done my bit, but not really much more involved in all the other side of things, should be soon and I,ll let you no when it’s out, ?
-
And for some strange reason it’s always the pike that seem to arrive first, which is strange as a predator should need prey ?
-
There is an online poll at the bottom of the link, currently running at70% to 30% in fury’s favour, personally I,d give it to aj if it ever happens ?

Do you shoot firearms mr Wilkes, reason I ask is as I don’t use firearms so I never seek permission, ?
-
I dare say there is mate, but all the screaming idiots keep shouting is we want a clear picture, so if everyone is happy with the figures should be at least one of these alpha hunters that can upload a phone shot of one they have seen or killed, it’s just an example of the stupidity of those that like to shout so loud they can’t hear what is being said or don’t want to, and one or two that are more into online arguing than trying to learn or be involved in something ??

Yes mate have been out tracking with her and her partner, they do mountain rescue and search for missing people, she’s also really good on wild edibles, you would certainly not go hungry if you were lost with her, other than what I’ve seen when I was out with her I don’t know a lot more, her partner is part of the beaver project so both very well qualified ?

My problem is that rules have tightened massively with regard to ownership and as we said we don’t no how many are illegally smuggled in, then there is the other problem I have is that I do get a couple of sightings early summer most years of a big one with a smaller one in tow so in my own mind there is no doubt that breeding does take place, I,ve been saying there is a lot of natural behaviour, which only comes with something familiar with its surroundings not something just turned loose, I don’t doubt for one minute one or two may get here illegally and some may eventually be turned loose,

Why not get a small shop going on here and make a few pound as well then, plenty of perspective customers, and a small commission for the man that came up with the ideal ?
-
They are another species of animal that live in the uk, when I asked someone for a photo of one my biggest critic and the forums greatest hunter had the audacity to claim to have seen one running along a road was within 3ft of it yet still has not produced the photo, oh the irony of it ???
-
My mate took his misses out for a meal on Valentine’s Day and squashed one On his way which really set the mood ??
-
I did look one year and I think 12 had been intercepted entering the country illegally but that does not say how many got through ?
-
Much more likely there may be a male on Bodmin and a female on Dartmoor, and there would have been years when they never found a mate, they are now showing up in certain areas at certain times of the year which indicates they are travelling in a circuit which would encompass a female or two and as this carry’s on happening the young will spread out and the territory’s will get smaller this is when we will get to a point that people will spot them a bit more regularly, I totally get it is just an assumption and you have to take a lot of what I say at face value but I’m really not into bullshit
-
I no that but imprinting on the brain just makes predators pretty nomadic, also sheep are a lot less taken than deer judging by the numbers we get, and most sheep get reported but no one reports deer, the dipping of sheep is really off putting,I mentioned before the estate in Scotland that was loosing up to 4 sheep a week, suspected mother and cub, so as an experiment half the flock were dipped and from then on only undipped sheep disappeared, in Bodmin in the 80s a farmer put poison on the necks of his sheep after getting a hammering, from that day on the cat went from the lambs to the ewes w

If a large predator is in the woods for a few weeks the prey items move on so the predator moves with them and as you know the seasons bring different things at different times of the year, so young birds rabbits and hares in the crops early season and woods during winter for the deer and cover ?
-
The same reason you spent hundreds of hours getting ready to go out looking your most splendid and travelling miles round your local pubs and clubs with your tongue on the floor, SEX if there were only a few here and a few there the urge to breed is what will send them on there travels and once they have a female or two that will be the size of the territory as they will keep on revisiting until she is in season and ready to mate??
-
There rearing would have a big impact on how things went, as I said there are two black leopards in captivity the male is hand reared the female not, if the pen got breached over night she would probably be gone and not seen again he would be sat there still waiting for breakfast or just wandering around, places like Bodmin and exmoor were far more quiet and remote in the 70s so the adaptation had more chance to pan out, after all the initial sightings things went quiet for some time but now farmers like the one that lost those sheep will have a few attacks each year at around the same time o
