Arry 18,588 Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 Yea same as the other boys keep posting I find it very interesting. As said before most of my mates have seen them but not me. I'm totally convinced they're out there by the descriptions that friend and farmers have told me and not one of those sighting were reported. Cheers Arry 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Its just these silly news articles, pics, and things these experts come out with at times.. Link to post Share on other sites

I sent the film off to a guy who was on here he worked with cats and showed it to his colleges who all agreed that it was a cub of some sort but again not clear enough to positively I’d unfortunately the guy has since left to run a zoo I believe In Another country and has stopped posting or answering his emails, maybe he will try to sell it to the papers who knows 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Im not trying to rubbish the theory of cats as I do believe just saying this post is nonsense. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly, people post daft pictures like this all the time saying its irrefutable proof of Big Cats, absolute rubbish, it's foxes, corvids etc! Not a single sensible picture, video, body etc have I ever seen. With a breeding population of 250 of one type alone, seems more than odd we can't actually find a single one. Perhaps we need to call in Packham or Attenborough, Attenborough's crew always seem to find their target, seems finding a big cat in the wild in the UK would make an excellent program, so why don't they do it????????!

Give a TV production company an iota of proof,show them irrefutable footage they will be on the project like hounds,plough loads of funds into it,and come up with the goods.Theres 70 amur leopards in the wild,that's a third of the UK's supposed british big cat populations in an area that Britain would fit in multiples of times,yet TV companies capture footage of the amur time and again,getting the british cats on film for a TV company should be a cake-walk,no? 2 Link to post Share on other sites

mackem 23,783 Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Surprised the BBC didn't try and capture footage of one for their Big Cats series,what a coupe that would have been,but somehow I don't think they are too convinced of their existance. http://www.bbc.com/earth/story/20161208-many-people-are-convinced-that-big-cats-roam-the-uk Link to post Share on other sites

Show us your footage then and show me a Fox, badger or corvid remove the stomach in tact and pull it to one side, all British scavengers relish it, but it’s poison to a cat ??? and lastly these deer are being consumed in as little as 4 hours not a day or two Link to post Share on other sites

There had been a cat sighting less than half a mile away and I was hoping it was a cat, hence the cameras went out Also it was not over a day or two, it was in one night, and it happened on quite a few occasions, not once, or every now and again, it was two or three times a week. heres a couple I can lay my hands on instantly, will look later see if I can find some better ones 2 Link to post Share on other sites
