It’s the same old shite, appointing people because of there race or gender instead of there suitability for the job like an interest in wildlife and the countryside, but like yourself I enjoy the programme and just block out the plebs, still have a soft spot for macala though ?

My lads are doing groundwork on a site up cribbs, sent home till Monday mate, I done the same as you ??

Then maybe your old man would be a good person to ask, everyone I knew that were into pigeons have knocked it on the head due to the amount of perigrine falcons that now live near us, but as I said for many years an old friend that used to run a local pigeon club would drive to Heathrow pick up some Indian dudes take them round for a few day,s buying eggs ? then drop them back to Heathrow all expenses paid and a nice wedge when they were sorted, laws may have changed or may vary for different species,as I,ve said I don’t no why or how, never really got into pigeons apart from shooting the fly

I know it’s not minus 40 here but is there anybody else that loves this weather, I bailed from work at 12 and have spent 4 great hours out with the dogs I really love it and would like it to get much worse, or am I just looking an even bigger oddball, hoping to get snowed right off tomorrow so I can get up and out early, ??? -
Was thinking a ring at the next fishing match, so anyone with a beef could come in for a leveller whilst earning a few quid for charity, then have a beer and shake hands round the Barbie later, you could zig zag down country on your way picking up any wanna be pugilists for a very reasonable fare, winner winner chicken dinner ???

Question for the hunters here, does the frozen ground hold scent better or is there just more scent as the animals have to be out more to find food, ??? -
An old mate of mine has been selling pigeon eggs to Indians for years, don’t know why or what the law is I just no he does and for strong money they have to be from the right birds of course with strong racing pedigrees maybe someone more enlightened than me can tell you why ?

A good little tip I was given recently for taking plastercasts is to carry a can of spray paint and spray a coat of paint into the track before taking the plaster cast I,ve never bothered myself but a few people I no do carry the equipment and cast prints, we do work with vets university,s and a zoo near you so we do have access to a lot of good samples for comparison,it’s not all just scruffy old oddballs, we just tend to be the feet on the ground ??

I believe game keeper John has a short film on utube explaining the law on catty,s in detail, but if it’s any consolation I,m 57 years old and have catty,s in most of my coats in the door pocket of my van and always have think it’s more what you do with a catty than the catty itself that makes it an offensive weapon rather than a toy, ???

My sister had a 35m eos and yes all the lenses are compatible with her new dslr eos, the boy got his for £12 a month from curry,s if you don’t fancy shelling out a big lump in one go, all the lads on the boys syndicate use the same camera and a lot of the pictures are used in magazines and the website, he told me if you want it for self takes a fixed 50m lense is the one to get??
-
My boy has a eos 750D which is apparently the best one at the moment, I,m a point and shooter so not my bag, but if I remember rightly there is a newer model but it’s not as good for the extra dollar apparently, he,s into his fishing and uses it mostly for trophy shots but you can sync it with your mobile phone and use the phone as a remote you can also email the photos straight off the phone here is one he sent me within a few minutes of capture ??

Cold weather bringing in some good stuff just been chasing a gold crest round a holly bush trying to get a pic, I never do mine on time but will spend an hour this week and do it ?

The same thing happens with racing pigeons leaving the country, much easier to smuggle a box of eggs and hope a few hatch than trying to fill your coat with live birds
-
That’s why it’s important to scale any picture that will be put forward as proof, that picture was taken from a kitchen window I believe, it would not be hard to place a cardboard cutout in the same place, though the cats we are talking about are not as big as many expect,22”TTS would be a good size male And yes sandymere they eat tofu titter titter some of the people I deal with actually go out to places like India and help out with the leopard projects and your thoughts and ideals on how simple it is in there own country to see them has been very distorted by your ability to turn on the

Twice mate, once in 2015 in a tiny village in Dorset called tarrick Moncton, I found several things around the same time that set me off looking for more evidence after that one, I saw it from the car and went back and got my dogs, but when I got to the spot they shat themselves and refused to leave my side ,it was there behaviour as much as my eyes that told me what I saw, and the second time I was driving back from a mates funeral in Kettering in June 2017 and saw one in a field alongside the motorway near Tewkesbury, both were quite fleeting but unmistakable, I reported seeing the second on

It’s in America and was taken in an enclosure with a puma mate, but glad you sussed it ?????
-
The fakes are quite easy to spot usually as a cats foot is like your hand and each digit is slightly different, but when you use the same finger or object to make the four toes it looks suspicious, at least I no who is sending these to me now cheers ???
-
You really don’t know what your saying and your now in the point scoring game the camera gear is new and the cats were living for years totally Unknown about, that’s all unless anyone has something sensible to say or ask as this normally marks the beginning of the end on this topic ???
-
As is this one mate, taken in the states and used as an example pic for tracking puma, seeing what you want to see is a problem for both camps, for and against, but they both have enough detail and a size comparison in the picture to know what they are and when you find other bits of evidence in the same area it all paints a bigger picture, I’ll leave it there for now unless any new evidence comes to light ????
-
Think if someone could get there hands on the new one they are filming everything with at the moment I could take you out at certain times of the year and show you one quite easily, baring in mind we are looking for an animal that easily moves 20k in a night and could have a territory of upto 500 square miles, but during winter time when cover is limited and they are moving less I would be confident, so if anyone fancy,s shelling out I,m game, also bare in mind the jaguar scene took over a month and at a cost of over £20.000 for a couple of minutes of footage
-
It’s all bluff and bravado, sadly when they actually kill someone it’s a mistake more often than not, this bit of coverage and footage will escalate your man into the realms of real tough guy not to be f****d with, but if he was as tough as he would like people to believe he would not need the ridiculous knife, especially as there is probably some elderly gent in the cat without a good fight in him, another convert to Islam waiting to happen

Cats were living for years in places like Mumbai and Johannesburg in large numbers totally un noticed by the locals and in much larger numbers than here, I live in a major city and can assure you I don’t travel far to find things so though I can’t confirm or deny they are in or around Bournemouth it does not surprise me one bit and I would,nt be surprised, save me getting into to many conversations as I’m a slow writer For Sandymere a lot of the tooth pit samples being tested in the laboritory over the last year or more were provided by Jonathan, Tommo a lot of cctv footage

Shit lawyer if she got caught for that, it’s a standard £100 round here for the crackheads to take your points but a grand if your HGV

No one is an expert, frank is a 70 year old man who,s knowledge is quite extensive on most wildlife and he has had a over 30 years of studying sightings and evidence, Jonathan has submitted quite a few specimens that have been examined and confirmed in laboratory conditions, I have met most of the people involved over the years but we are all just enthusiastic amateurs, who have been brought together to pool information through a common interest, I personally would not be willing to speak with the media or go on film as it is very easy to edit and ridicule people plus I,m not really worried wh
-
I,ve seen the footage before, but as with most other footage if you don’t put up scale size models etc to confirm the size the picture means nothing, the tail looks like the real deal as even a Bengal has a normal size tail and we don,t have Jaguars in the uk as they are to much of a specialist hunter and would stand out here a bit more, also never had a genuine spotty leopard as tomo likes to point out only black ones, there are quite a few big cat groups springing up on Facebook but though they get some pretty good footage no one scales it or does anything to confirm it’s genuine,?
