I,ve always fished in remote places and have had farmers and land owners warn me to be carefull as they have had either livestock killed or had seen large cats on there land have also always taken note of news paper reports and odd clips on the news so I just accepted they were here, then on a walk with the dogs in an area I have walked for more than thirty years I found a very fresh and almost totally consumed roe Buck that was in sept2015 so I started looking a bit closer then I found a sheep and a fox all killed and eaten by something with a big appetite, then in sept the following I was in

definately lots of footage is now held back and I think with the trail cameras drones and especially thermal imaging becoming more every day the footage will become more and better quality, five years ago trail cameras were quite rare now they are in Aldi also the cameras now on phones are of a good enough quality to produce pictures like the one that started all this, RYALDINHIO i don't have any permission I just follow clues and plot my routes using Google Earth the land I caught the film on is very private but is only used in the summer apart from some kind of caretaker that lives there all

I,m not really keen on clubs and society's etc but some of the people I,m in contact with are, they have had my footage and the emails I showed socks are from people in these society,s, the main problem for these body,s is they have to act within the law to protect there funding and image were as I am a bit of a sneaky quiet mooching type and I sneak in and put my cameras in places they won't go, I have had cameras up in places that would lead to some very embaressing questioning if I were to get ever caught and for NEEMS the main criteria seems to be high wooded ridges with good views over va

believe it or not mate they can breed in any month of the year although there are peaks and troughs they tend to coincide with there prey animals so the footage was taken on the 23/26 March and I would say( but I am not an expert ) that the cub is between two and three months old, so my reckoning would be born in January sometime, I also think that many predators even pike give birth a little bit earlier than there prey so they can grow up catching the new born offspring for the first year of life, it's a lot of assumption involved but it seems to fit and make perfect sense to me and next year

and I just offered you strong money for the body, same goes for anyone else that does either shoot one see one run over or just finds one in a hedge, I can arrange collection, payment and guarantee you anonymity cheers my quest goes on but like all forms of hunting it's much better in winter

you were not having it no matter what the outcome was of my meeting with socks, from the start to the finish you have just acted like a troll, it's a little bit sad really and not painting a great picture of yourself, I assume by your avatar you were born in 1985 which makes you 32 you profess to have a genuine interest in big cats and large preditors so here was a chance to learn a bit and exchange some views even if they are well different to mine I would still respect them and try to explain were I,m coming from and you likewise but everything you have contributed is like a 14year old kid,

Id like to thank socks, had a lovely drive up saw my first hare of the year and also a red kite on the way back, met a decent like minded bloke that has certainly had many years experience and knows his stuff all in all a good experience, as socks mentions in his summary the clip I have is of a baby so not only proof of excistance but also of breeding, I needed to know that the Cubs have grown and left the area before I could let any of this out, hence my slight paranoia, I would also like the area left undisturbed so I can hopefully get my cameras in there earlier next year and catch a pictur

Theres a mountain lion recently took a dog from the owners bedroom,california I think?Leopards in Africa and india regularly take dogs,they have even moved into towns and are seen on a regular basis in Africa and india,stock especially sheep would be preferable to deer in the UK I would think. one of the reasons my cameras are were they are is because every sheep field around has signs on the gates about stock being killed it's just easier to blame dogs and I believe the insurance pays out on dog attacks, I have found a sheep myself that was carried over two fields to cover before being eaten,

feck me that was my wages as a kid, I used to sweep the sawdust up in the coop butchers after school every evening, then run straight in the main coop and buy a massive family galaxy bar with that when I was payed oh happy days

I believe the repayments from the eu to blairs personal wealth pot dried up with brexit, he believed he had sold his country with enough clauses to make the damage irreversible to cash in for ever with a final payment being the presidency of the eu, have you ever wondered why anyone would want to pay the man£200 000 for an after dinner speech, it's just repayments for his treachery whilst in office c**t

shit busted I'm hoping socks don't notice the longleat sign

there is no doubt in my mind of what I have on the footage I have watched it almost everyday since I got it trying to look for anything else it could be and questioning my own eyes, there is also a very good reason I can't let the footage out of my control and like I said, if socks sees what I am seeing he is welcome to explain the reason for my actions and slight over protectiveness of a bit of film that will be forgotten in a few months

ah finished giving advice on the Joshua/klitchko thread and he,s back,but no your right it's not a top military or national security video it's mine and if I could give you any advice in life it would be to shut your mouth and open your ears now and again then maybe people would be willing to share things with you, because if I,m honest if you lived next door to me,I think I,d still rather drive a hundred miles to meet socks, cheers,I doubt I'd answer the door if my crackpot neighbour who goes Big Cat hunting with a Wind Up Camera came knocking to show me proof of a mute Cougar that as the tr

There you go thats what you want......if i was looking for a genuine unbiased opinion id jump at the chance to get the opinion of someone like this instead of a bloke off the internet who saw a few large cats once and happens to be a nice bloke........surely if you truly want to get to the truth then the more opinions the better,particularly expert opinions......its going round in circles all this. if you actually read some of the threads you may not keep making silly statements and we could stop going round in circles, I,m not willing to hand my footage over at the moment to anyone I don't kn

instead of keep looking for reasons to rip someone's stuff to pieces why not try looking at the bigger picture, like the dates of her footage and the cameras that would have been used then, all these super HD cheap cameras are a relatively new thing on the market like drones and thermal imaging, many people doing this were using 35 mm film trail cameras with a trigger time that would have struggled to catch a sloth back in the day,you just need to look at the picture that started all this, if that was in 2011 what type of picture would that woman have taken on a phone ? one thing that has beca

that's why to anyone with a bit of an inquisitive mind all these reports can't just be escaped cats that no one has bothered reporting, they live and breed here, when the Lynx escaped from the zoo in Devon they had every available resource brought in to catch it and it still took them over a month, to catch a relatively tame cat with the knowledge of were it was, people with lots more tracking experience than me, drones and traps baited with the farm animals it had already killed, if it was born here the chances of seeing it let alone catching it are pretty remote

what I don't get tomo is why can't normal ones escape? what I don't get tomo is why can't normal ones escape?. My cat knowledge is a work in progress, but the three main culprits are black or melonistic leopards, Jaguars are much bigger would take bigger prey, like cows and horses,plus they like water, so would get spotted a lot more,I also think in cats melonism passes to the offspring (which is another clue they are breeding) and in some places around the world all the leopards have turned black, also Pumas which though not black vary from sandy brown to grey, and finally the humble Lynx

No need to apologise to me mate as I've stated I will be fair and say the truth regarding what I see ... the people off here that have met me know I will say it as it is ......I'm looking forward to your opinion .If it's great footage you don't need to be a expertsadly it's not the greatest footage it's at night when the camera is in black and white but it's clear enough to know what your looking at, truth be told there are no real experts in this subject just a few enthusiastic amateurs as its a mythical creature that some believe and many don't, I have had the pics looked at by a few people

i have quite a few friends live on boats and spend quite a bit of time out on the canal and to be honest I love the winter, mind you I am a little unsociable but the lack of tourists, people taking photos of you and finding a place to park are just a few benefits, it also don't take long to get the place roaring with the doors shut and the fire on its normally warmer than being at home, as long as you don't mind collecting a bit of fire wood and realise that everything has to be carried on and off again it's a fantastic way of life with some strange and wonderful people, mind you you're a bit
