UK Big Cats.

Wyton Police Support Unit - anyone there? I’m curious to know what took you to Elton, south west of Peterborough, afternoon of Saturday the 11th, around 4 o’clock.

You wouldn’t be looking for a Black Panther would you? The same one I saw, large as life, strolling past a farm gate. It’s too much of a coincidence that 15 minutes later the helicopter arrived over the very spot.

For any non-Brits here, this country is infested ( OK, perhaps infested is stretching it) with wild Black Panthers. Only last week, and 40 miles way, it was confirmed by UK/US DNA testing of hairs left at the scene that what a Lincolnshire farmer had spotted on his land was……………… a Black Panther.

...........and they can swim to! For there is one in County Antrim / Northern Ireland. R22 employed to find such beast is yet to come up with the goods.

Puma (Weapons free with GPMG) thats what you need, how ironic if a Panther was topped by a Puma

UK big cat, would you happen to know where I can get a copy of that news report about the DNA being tested?

The local BBC people should have the details.
