scothunter 12,609 Posted June 22, 2018 Report Share Posted June 22, 2018 Good point. So why hasn't one of the allegedly big cat's here caught some disease and wandered into a populated area. As a kid I found a fox wandering around near town. Threw my jacket over it had it in my arms. Didn't know any better. Cops passed and screeched to a halt. Jumped out the van. "What you got there son"? A fox! "Put it down"¡ They called the RSPCA who came and shot it. I remember the cop saying something about rabies nearly shit myself lol It had distemper got a lift home by the cops though. Link to post Share on other sites

So why hasn't one of the allegedly big cat's here caught some disease and wandered into a populated area. According to Jonathon McGowan the UK's leading big cat expert/authority some cats here live in populated areas including London despite this being the most heavily surveilled country on the planet with PTZ CCTV everywhere. Perhaps both leopard and pumas or leopards have naturalised and are spreading out looking for territories just like over here in the UK, as many of these species move through built up areas including London. Many of these cats actually live in cities just like the leopards in India, Indonesia and Africa. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I,m not a vet or expert in anyway regarding animal diseases cause and effect, but if I had to hazzard a guess I would suggest everything that's happening abroad will eventually happen here but as populations are still very small and somewhat segmented I think the spread and effect of disease would also be minute and as yet not caused any real conflict, for Mackem clearly you now have your Jonathan's a looney stance so everything he says is a lie but I have also found things around the outskirts of my own major city that makes me think that they are getting closer to towns and city,s, as they breed they will need to make new territory and as there territory is so big they will end up coming into towns and city,s eventually, just had a very good credible shout from someone inside the m25 circle, so I don't no if they live in London but all the pointers are that they are getting closer to urbanisation Link to post Share on other sites

There are many weird and wonderful people involved and mad or sane all the stuff that each of us submit is examined by science so our personal beliefs don't count for anything, I even talk with vegetarians who think hunting is horrendous but as long as we are all pulling in the same direction and handing our findings in, it's all good apart from Danny nineham who is a true conman 1 Link to post Share on other sites
