Yep I bet that 200 quid came in handy to buy a new bike and get his arse sewn up .

The warden who is responsible for that area said that he didn't think it was an attack in the pre meditated aggressive manner. It was suggested that the leopard was bolting across the road and collided with the cyclist. I'm sure greb will give us his definitive opnion.

I'm going with your idea of thought.

It was either cgi or Jeremy Beadle set it up.

If you look at the original footage from the roadside traffic camera and compare it to the footage mackem put up anyone should be able to see that the footage mackem posted is a second generation recording. Probably made using a mobile phone recording a tv or computer.  There are multiple similar second generation recordings posted on youtube and similar hosting services. Some of them have been replicated by news outlets. Possibly duped into thinking they had an exclusive. Many of the stories give differdnt locations for the incident.

Or you can believe that someone with a mobile phone just happened to be sat up a tree filming a random cyclist and got lucky.

Personally I think that’s probably a traffic camera, and secondly if it was actually  attacking him it would have just locked on like the snow leopard that went over the cliff if it wasn’t just crossing the road it may have had young or a kill in the hedge and was simply warning him off but he was not being attacked in my opinion ?

Or dogs, common prey item in India and Africa. 

 

The dog thing has been covered before, it does happen same with domestic cats, I think Forest of Dean redneck saw the remains of a dog when he came to a talk we done a few years back at symonds yat plus we are so over run with deer why bother ?

So is India Paul but still leopards kill dogs and people .Foxes scavenge dead dogs .Seen it with dogs I’ve buried 3 foot deep .Back to nature is the narrative and I never get upset by it .

Still maintain that cat was in for the kill .Realised it’s mistake and let go .You can see it lunge . 
Let’s not fantasise please .

It is from a traffic camera. If it was a phone image, personal witness type of thing as it is intended to look like it would not be as still. 

As I said at the start it looks like it has been manipulated and now we know that it was.

It certainly leapt, but the warden still claims it was a collision, not an attack. There are politics involved as you would expect. For a start nobody wants to alarm the public. Then there is the re-establishment programs and all sorts of other stuff. The press variously recorded it as being a tiger and a cheetah, both of which are being re-located. And the locations given for the incident are also linked to that.   

He'll need a new pair of underpants, that's for sure.

These sort of attacks along with dog attacks are quite common in India, that much so they often make the news over there.

That's why I can't get my head around this big kept secret over here, it would be in everyone's best interests to inform the public of their existence incase a cat attacked someone.

write to your local mp and tell him / her your thoughts, it’s only them that are holding back the truth, ?

Because leopards are opportunistic, dogs are easy for them, one selp professed big cat expert in the UK says there are leopards in one Dorset town, dogs would surely be the natural prey for urban leopard a la joburg and Mumbai?
