Blackmag 5,870 Posted January 19, 2023 Report Share Posted January 19, 2023 I will say a big shooting man saw a big cat up here he so was convinced he contacted his local firearms dept and basc wether he could shoot it on his fac he also had a witness to it was 20 yards of him Paul has the paper work a farmer who's a big shooting man and knows his stuff has had a encounter both have nothing to gain by lying fd and I believe them yes I think a fox or pig could strip stuff exactly like some of the pics have shown and have done but because I haven't seen it it doesn't mean there not there 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I require a certain level of evidence that can be verified without the myth and legend surrounding it .I’ve seen things at range that I’ve thought maybe ,but a look through the bins confirms it just a cat or a dog or a bag even .I was walking the dogs late yesterday afternoon up a lane near me and I saw a cat coming down the hedgerow that was ,large black and lithe .First spotted at maybe 170 m and I let it get very close before identifying it as a house cat and hurrying the dogs on as they can’t resist a good old cat hunt . Others may have took it for something else I don’t know . Its not only about seeing it mate ,it’s seeing and getting the head round the spoor left behind that says without a shred of doubt what has passed ,something that can be referred too against known cases not the iffy stuff we are presented with on here . Im passed calling anyone a liar so I’ll refer to it as possible mistaken ID mate .Everyone different mate so please don’t think I’m taking the piss . 1 Link to post Share on other sites
foxdropper 17,092 Posted January 19, 2023 Report Share Posted January 19, 2023 Funny how things happen ain’t it .The security light has just gone on outside so I went to the back door .Usually a rat or the smoke from our wood burner triggers it but this cheeky fecker is eyeballing the fish in our pond ..He’ll get 3 strikes and then it’s curtains I’m afraid .Nobody locally has a cat .It looks well fed to me .Dog kennels just to the right out of view .Some guard dogs they are Link to post Share on other sites
