Agreed the head profile doesn’t look like a leapord.......but why would the old lad shit himself when he saw a moggy in his caravan, he would have booted it up the arse surely ?

Unless the old boy is a total bullshitter something’s not right, definitely agree the head is narrow and ears pointie more moggy than leopard also when he says leopard type regarding the dna result, don’t no if that could hint at hybridisation, it’s better to look for the answers than just keep shouting liar though I think ?

He thought he saw a leopard i expect and once it had a title it became that. I was driving along the link road in Devon one day, my missis looking up at a small field through a gap in the trees, she said NO! i looked at the same place but trees obscured the view, as we got another 30 yards we came to another break and she laughed, in the field was a black dog walking toward a woman. On 1st view she thought she'd seen a black cat and if we'd never gotten that second wider view she would have thought that for good, human eyes are very fallible.

Can't be true because melanism has never been verified in Cougars.

What's with all this hybridisation, you mean between leopards and domestic cats? As to look for answer, not to sure what answers your looking for, think its pretty safe to say that's a bog standard cat.

I’m not on either side here as I’m open to then being here but if your sure of a area and time I’m struggling to see why you can’t get evidence fair enough you don’t want to say the location and have every Tom dick and Harry traipsing about but couldn’t you set up camera traps and get a select few of people you trust and get watching

I think he's claiming there to be Puma/Leopard hybrids out there, just way too far fetched for me.

He's either mistaken or lying, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. 

Do you seriously need to ask why people lie?

cats in captivity interbreed but in the wild? that's a very different thing plus aren't their infertility problems?

There's only been a handful of these hybrids that have been documented, they suffer from infertility problems and suffer from dwarfism. 

To suggest that there's a healthy breeding population of hybrids is ludicrous IMO.

He got his 15 minutes of fame perhaps or just the story built with the telling to meet the needs of the audience , its a common phenomenon, memory like eyesight is unreliable.

You tell me? He wasn't a young man was he, old folk can get confused and mistaken. 

Maybe he did actually believe there was a Leopard in his caravan?

I have lost two trail cams there but each year will be back with a new strategy, I find footprints and kills but still no picture, I have a week or two a year and it stops again  truth be told the scientific stuff the sceptics choose to ignore is far more exciting to me than the clear picture I,ve seen a few and I,m sure some one will come forward that have one and are willing to go public,?
