Pre the year 2000 they don’t count mate as we all agree escapes and releases happened .What a few ,myself included dispute is the presence of the same type of large cat nowadays post 2000 and the breeding colony we are lead to believe is the reason for recent sightings .

sandymere 8,263 Posted December 13, 2022 Report Share Posted December 13, 2022 (edited) The decrying of others such as the chap getting the leopard film and the naturalist youtuber mentioned earlier in this thread is undignified but the name calling is simply childish, even if the questions and ascertains of posters cause some cognitive dissonance surely a grown man can have some small measure of composure. I find it difficult to give credence to a person who's not even able to discuss a subject without such rather sad schoolboy outbursts. i can only suggest a look in the mirror to judge your age then an attempt to act accordingly.

I don't believe there's any sort of large numbers of any big cat, breeding regularly, in this country. But, like I said a couple of weeks ago, it's easily possible for a few pairings, of whatever species of medium/large cat, to occur in several areas of of the British countryside. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

No no, foxy, you misunderstand, 'liars cranks, hallucinating druggies, people who's sightings of big cats were so long ago, their memories can't be all that clear, or they couldn't be sure of what they saw', is what YOU have said, a number of times on this thread. But now you're saying it's possible, that's what I find interesting. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
