While I was out on Loch Ness on the sonar search vessel "deep search", I mentioned to the scientist and skipper about the big cats, they told me that the ballif near Urqhuart castle had seen a Puma (black!) the week before about the size of a Labrador. He was very close and was amazed by it, but regrets telling everyone!!
I didn't realize till I got back to Rutland that Urqhuart is so close to Boblainy forest where you mentioned that newspaper was warning about.
You may be able to get more info on this by email from the research website on www.lochness.scotland.net where a webcam is live on the bay next to where it was seen
