Not blurry photos, paw prints in the mud etc undeniable evidence.? In all seriousness, it won't be me or someone like me that delivers the evidence to confirm there existence, as I have said before science will bring the final parts of the jigsaw together, photo,s are to easy to doctor and dismiss though if and when we do get a 100 percent pic it will be a good addition to the other stuff a dead body is also a very much sought after part of the puzzle, but it's the laboratory tests that are carried out on the carcasses of larger prey items that will make it impossible to dispute and that part of the puzzle is 90percent complete as we speak, when people mention the TVs programs that make it all look so easy they never see the trapper that goes out a year before the film makers arrive and humanely leg snare the cat tranquillise it and fit a tracking collar to it, then after a year they no the size of its territory and the routes it takes to move around it, were as I have to work all this out by myself through sightings/reports grainy pictures and miles of walking but I now have two territory,s that I can be pretty sure they are in for a few months at least each year, so that's about were I am, I have seven cameras in a small valley I believe has been used before to rear Cubs so am really hopeful she has survived and wil return this winter for another litter I won't touch the cameras for a few months so I might even have a good photo already, it gets easier the more you look and also technology is on our side more than ever before, I think some really rich bloke could get a drone with all the gear on(Mackem) and with the assistance of a poor bloke (me) who knows we're to look could solve it in two or three months at the right time of year got to go out now for a bit but hope that's a help even some footprints in the mud are quite convincing especially when you have a pic with a tape measure in which I have of this one its 3.5 " front to back and 4.5 across can't be anything other than feline and was taken just before Christmas cheers 1 Link to post Share on other sites
