Every So Often In The UK,

we read reports about a 'big cat' sighting, accused of killing local livestock, but as yet as far as I know not one has ever been captured to prove their existence, but here is some photographic 'proof' of their existence, sisters Lisa and Alana Sydenham took this picture as they were driving through Embo in Ross-shire, the latest revelations follow last week’s exclusive Ross-shire Journal story in which Easter Ross farmer George Ross, of Rheguile Farm, spoke of the savaging of 18 of his sheep since the beginning of the year.

Chief Inspector Paul Eddington, who has several years’ experience as a police wildlife crime coordinator specialist under his belt, said there had been several very credible sightings of big cats in Ross-shire down the years, Ch Insp Eddington also recalled the December 2008 report — first revealed by the Journal — of the attack on a 73-year-old Easter Ross woman convinced she had been mauled after disturbing a big cat near her home, a black Puma or Jaguar seem to be the most common animals that are thought to be on the loose, but I wonder if we will ever see one caught, alive of course, to prove if 'big cats' really are out there?
