Yep I saw one at Wittonstall , coming home from lamping at around 4am and saw it walking down the side of the road. I stopped the car , opened the door and it walked past no more than 3ft away and continued into the garden of a nearby property.
I think it was just an escapee though as the local police wildlife officers place was just at the top of the bank and he had all sorts of wildlife.
It was actually on the North East news as the property owners caught it on camera.
