1,000 Sightings of Big Cats
From the Rampant Scotland, 7 th September 2002
The Scottish Big Cats group which monitors the sightings of large cat-like animals in
Scotland says that the number reported is almost 1,000 this year. The
big cats (which may be pumas, panthers or lynxes) are rarely captured
and film evidence is sometimes of the "Loch Ness Monster" variety.
But the animals have been blamed for the killing of turkeys, deer and
ducks. The Scottish Borders area has become a "hot spot" for reported
sightings.
