Sighting took place at Wrae Farm, Turriff, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
Have seen big cat. I do a lot of fox shooting at night and was out on Thursday night, 1 November at about 7.30 p.m.
When I put my light beam onto very bright eyes green in colour I knew it was not a fox as the eyes were too bright so I sat for about 10 minutes with my binoculars wondering if it was a badger.
It was coming up the side of a fence and stopped at a post it turned round it put its tail up in the air and wriggled its tail about with its backend against the post. Its tail was about two and half feet long that's when I realised it was a big black cat. I have been night shooting for 20 years. This is a first for me
