    Im 90% certain the dead lamb I found was killed by one of these things.... My dad was with me as well and said it had been expertly skinned with btih damage to its neck. It was realy fresh.

    I cant think of any other way a lamb could be skinned and taken 40 foot up a tree...

    the peak district has lots of reported sightings of big cats...

    wallabies live wild in the roaches in the south peak after the wild animal act or whatever it was called came into force in the 70's and people could no longer keep these 'exotic' animals by law... so they released them into the wild...

    nice one :D

    Yeah i live in the Peak District (Glossop as everyone already knows!) and we had some sightings in the villages around here about a year or two back. All the shitty little villages around here back onto the Pennines and huge moors and stuff so they must just roam around there.

    Eveyone shit it like wen these sightings went off. Warnings to keep alert after dark and shit...it was kerazee!

    I dont give a shit neway, goin back to leeds 2moz away from this shithole so i doubt ill be seeing many puma/panther style BIG cats around the city centre?

    they are called Feral cats - it just means a domestic cat born wild.

    What a load of tosh on that site!!

    you seen the 3 pics they have?

    all very poor quality so you cant see sweet FA,

    if theres 4 sightings a day how come they have 3 pics?

    i know not everyones got cameras when they do see big cats but if they know there was four sitings a day they surely would have been able to get more pics then 3!!

    Most cameras these days are very good quality so why is it when you see a 'sighting' the pic is very poor.

    Im interested in things like this but i think theres never any decent evidence to back it up.
