There have already been DNA releases in the UK and they have come back positive! The UK government simply doesnt want to admit their existence due to the fact that it would cause panic and panic is bad! There are instances of deer carcasses being found 40ft up in a tree...try telling me a squirrel did that!
Its not a panther or whatever. Big cats do not hold their tails up in the air when they walk, it would be like a flag saying 'here I am'!!! They walk with their tails down.
WOW! how dumb can u british ppl be! its just a big house cat, ive seen them that size before. ITS NOT A BLACK PANTHER! NO BLACK PANTHERS EXIST IN THE UK! nice wishful thinking! If u wanna see REAL black panthers come down to the swamps of the southeastern usa, that is if your brave enough!
@14davidls Actually since this there have been dropping found and saliva taken from half eaten sheep carcases, which have been shown to come from Leopards. During the 1970's new laws were introduced, meaning people who owned big cats as pets, would have to build big enclosures and pay lots of money to keep them. Many people just set them free in the wild. The British country side is full of rabbits and dear, which would be more than able to sustain big cats. Do the research yourself.
@tool2342 if black panthers existed in the uk there would be definite proof by now. Your country is much smaller than the USA and the wilderness is much closer to the cities so they would have wandered in by now. I have watched all the vids on youtube in the uk that claim to show a "black panther" and every one of them has been a HOUSE CAT. Whereas when you look at the vids of sightings in the USA you can tell in most of them that it is a black panther by the size and the long tail.
@14davidls Well next week DNA samples from 2 mauled deer, are going to be released, so we'll know then. And what you said about the wilderness, there are thousands of acres upon thousands or acres of greenbelt and forest land in the UK. Just look on google earth. Habitat is not an issue, believe me. I agree with what you say about the videos, so far non have been good enough for me to believe it is a big cat. But like I said, I'm just waiting to see what these DNA results say.
though definately a cat tail is held wrong, in Ohio near where I lived a natural resource officer captured something similiar, "common" cats can get big, real big, if an imported black cat, a melanistic leopard is possible, in oregon we had all sorts of cats, sightings including the normals, cougars, lynx and bobcats, and drop offs including a maned lion (witnessed by a cop) panthers, leopards etc, cats r smart, and can live a long time the more I see, look like maybe a cat cross
@webber0512 haha if you have or have seen a household cat that is about 4-5 feet long the ame length inbetween the two rails on a track then i am severely worried for you
@19591910 yep your right, it didnt become illegal to keep them as such, well i guess it did but what happened to be exact is a license was created and to keep a cat you needed a license but it cost alot and ppl didnt have that kind of money to get the license for what was just a pet..... Harrods store in london actually sold tiger cubs for £200.00 each... and a good few were sold... Loads were released into the wild.. Im not shocked some are being seen at all.
Doesn't matter how old you are - if you came across one of these while walking home from the pub late one night in the dark, you'd absolutely shit it!
I don't understand how the importance of finding a big cat... plenty of fat/overgrown cats around? Could be a panther/cougar too...WHAT'S SO GOOD ABOUT A BIG CAT? someone tell me?! O_O

fucking exciting?!?!? are u fucking kidding me?!?!? i wonder if it will still b exciting when the motherfucker goes in someones house & eats their fucking baby!!! smfh
they used to sell panthers and leapords in harrods during the 60s and 70s many people had them and used to release them into the wild. its been proven that they have bred and are still here. ted noble caught a puma on his farm in scotland its dead now in museum in london. check out some websites do your own research the government say there not here so they dont have to pay farmers compensation for sheep losses. and so they dont cause a panic
After viewing this vid a couple more times, I don't believe the cat is unusually large. We are viewing the tracks from above and to the side, and from this angle the cat looks quite large in comparison.
Look again beginning around 0:45 where the tracks bend in the distance, and you can see how wide they really are. The cat is much smaller in comparison.
It's a simple optical illusion. Say hello to Felis catus catus, the domestic housecat.
I'm sceptical about most of the other vids I've looked at but at the beginning of this one the cat looks almost long enough to straddle the distance between the two rails. It also seems to move differently from a moggie. It's not huge but it's bigger than a normal cat and has got more "prowl" to it. Interesting. ..
@SrTamesis I agree. Although the angle of the video is deceptive and the location of the cat is debatable (on the tracks or beside them?), it does appear that it could straddle the rails. Rail gauge in the UK is 1,435 mm or about 4 feet 9 inches so this is a VERY large domestic cat. Notice how it carries it's tail? Wild cats almost never carry their tails so high and walk about so carelessly in the open.
Domestic cats of this size are not unheard of. The Maine Coon Cat regularly exceeds 1M.
I have seen what i believe is the same big cat twice near where i live but nobody believes me and think it was a big dog but you could tell everything about it just screamed cat except it's size, it walked like a cat where a dog would just trot along or be running this was prowling.
Take some time to search "mountain lion sigthings us". There, you will see what footage people get of big cats wandering around. These videos prove absolutely nothing I'm afraid. There is a great joke video on here which shows footage just like all the others (if not slightly better), until the cat gets up close and it is a small house cat. Show me conclusive footprints, DNA tests, or cat carcasses please.
OMG people, use your brains!!! it's a cat...an ordinary house cat. Look at the size of the marker by the side of the railroad tracks in comparison to the animal. If this animal were a panther, that marker would have to be 12 feet tall at least. In the world of *reality* those railroad markers are 3-4 feet high max. It's a black house cat. Sheesh.
you lot must ave shit in ya eyes. i dont thin k u lot ave seen a cat up close itsa moggy its walking on the lines a big cat wouldnt fit 1 paw on it. an that yellow post there only waist height. i live next to a railway its bollocks! but belive if u will they r out there but thats not abig cat . an i bet half of u looking at this are yanks!!!!! you belive anything!!!!
thats a moggy because the patchs of hog weed which are white behind it are only small compard to that its a moggy trust has any one been up againts a big cat in the zoo there not called big cats for nothing that train rails only 2inchwide if that wot cobblers
@carcano38 you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Places like dartmoor, areas in Berkshire, Cornwall and numerous other places have more than enough space to home big cats without coming into regular contact with people. And the climate has been proven to not be a problem. It is a fact that there are big cats in Britain and this is clearly one of them. Where do you think the literally hundreds of big cats went when released in the 80's??
@Dare39 if theres "hundreds" of big cat released in england in the eighties, show me any proof/record of even ONE corpse being discovered... wher did all the dead ones goe ? into thin air?. i bet u also beleive america brought down the twin towers or michael jackson is still alive .. YOU my friend is the one who doesnt know what your talkin bout.
With how dence the human population is in Europe it's impossible for such a large animal to survive. It would have gone the way of the wolves in Britain, which I believe were killed off in, like, 1300 or 1400 ad. A large cat turned loose would let it's presence to known in short order--and be killed. No, this is Britain's Bigfoot, lockness monster or whatever claim to fame. Stick with crop circles, more believable.
how niave is everyone next it'll be space aliens sighted shopping in asda! Ive worked on the railway for years and the space between the tracks is called the four foot and for a reason so either that is a very small puma (which by the way arent black like the guy who suposedly worked at the zoo sorry and all) or you guys have some farkin big trains up there and the fence is bloody high in the foreground too! get real peeps
That is a big ass cat for sure. Lots of sightings in my area (warwickshire) but never any hard evidence. I was out mountain biking a few yrs ago and saw a black animal out the corner of my eye on the edge of a field, I went back but it was a damn dog. If I ever see a big cat whilst out riding thru the woods I`ll $hit myself
No, it is big trust me. I've installed rail lines in the south of england before and divet in the centre is more than a metre apart .566 of a metre to be exact, and this cat is streches further. So yes, its a big ass cat. Scottish wildcats grow big cause of the access to food left by humans.
me & my friend saw what looked like a panther/demon cat a few years ago no shit..i live in KY in a suburban neighborhood & i was at his house down the street & we walked out his front door as i was leaving...theres is a BIG black cat that runs out into the street a few houses down...it stoped & jerked his head at us & its eyes were glowing red...than ran off...my friend said "was that an omen? have fun walking home!" craziest shit ive ever seen cant make sense of it
i paused in a couple of places and saw that the animal had the shape of a cat, but the tail seemed odd, it held it up like a house cat, but it seemed to big to be a hous cat. very odd video.
Are they kidding? This looks like an absolutely normal black house cat! I checked on Wikipedia to make sure rail tracks in the UK are not much wider than here in Germany. I estimate this animal being less than 1 m in length. Also from the garden fence, the nearby plants etc, I don't see how this could be taken for anything else but a off-the-shelf (so to speak) housecat.
This is a black house cat. I used to live on a farm and the animal in this video is 100% a house cat. I use to work with them and I know what they look like and how they walk.
Pause this clip @ 0:34? Go and stand next to the yellow post and you'll find that it's about waist height to an average person (We know the location of this clip so anyone could go and see for themselves in theory). You can clearly see that the creature in the clip is tiny in comparison: A domestic house-cat.
Do you believe a creature as elusive as a puma or leopard would allow itself to be filmed by a man standing in plain view at quite close distance?
I keep coming back to these from time to time. I do believe that big cats exist in Britain - i have seen one with my own eyes and no not in a Zoo. As someone has already pointed out the footage is from a camera phone so it is very hard to see. But lets look at all the footage that we have and put all the facts together. I can tell you right now it aint no dog. But it aslo isnt a domestic cat. So what is it. Despite what people think there is a strong difference between pet and wild cats.
well jonathan30005 - im a fucking dentist i even i can tell its just an average puss puss! You my man are 100% a sucker for all this shit. Why is all 'evidence' so compromisable! Cos its rubbish!
@bodders1029, well thats the sort of response you would expect from a dentist. ive seen one in a field close to my local wood, others saw it at the same time. It was a melanistic leopard not a pussy cat. It looked similar to the cat in this video. measure its length to the width of the tracks. Altho i have seen for my own eyes, there is plenty of evidence pointing towards Big Cats in the UK, go speak to a Farmer about their loss of live stock.
NO clear and definitive evidence! Just a possibility? They dont live for thirty years and all the so called escapees would have been in the early 80's. No one has shot one, stumbled across one that has died or traped one! Why is this? Why is all the footage so bad quality? This subject is bearly plausable! Oh and Im not a dentist you plonker - its called EFFECT! Also - your a little cunt
@bodders1029, I understood, No need to explain. And I was stating that you clearly didn't have a clue, and that it is the sort of response you would expect from a dentist. Someone who has no knowledge on the topic. Otherwise you would have known about the lynx (18 months old) which was darted in Cricklewood (May 2001), She can be seen in London Zoo. Do you carry a camera everywhere? Camera phones don't count, the quality is too low. And I Love the "your a little cunt" effect.... how old are you?
this animal is at least 5 feet long when you compare its lengh at 0:22 to the width of the rails witch are around 5 feet. plus its tail is held up and i know leopards and other large cats do that. And leopards and jaguars can be jet black in colour
See that yellow post by the side of the tracks? There are thousands of those alongside every railway line in the country. They stand 3ft (90 cm) high. You can clearly see that in comparison the "big-cat" in this clip stands about 1ft (30cm) high at the shoulder and is obviously someones pet moggy.
The standard gauge railway line measures 4ft 8ins between tracks. You can all see that this creature is not a Puma or a black Leopard. Case closed.
@lithfrasir That is the most retard explanation i have ever heard!!! "A man in a cat suit"!!!! Fucking classic! Just look at the limb size (drastically shorter than human limbs compared to the length of the body when horizontal) and the joints of the legs; if a man was crawling in a suit there would clear excessive bending at the joints as we obviously are not designed to walk on all fours like this big cat! Secondly watch the movement of the walk and the body doesn't look to be struggling or..
@lithfrasir even bare any resemblance to man crawling on all fours! Retard!! Plus go to Exmoor Zoo there is evidence of Melanistic leopards and jaguars on the moors; mainly because they have One of the big cats there!!!
that animal appears to walk on the actual steel tracks which would suggest to me that the animal is defo. not a dog and most likely not a "big" cat.. both of whom do not have paws designed for such a task.. i wouldsay that this was a house /ferel cat.. when u considerfrom a distance the steel tracks look larger than actual size and we kNW for defintete that the steel tracks are narrower than they look in this footage, it would suggest that the animal is much smaller than it appers. NOOOOO!!
what are you on about? where did you get your "infromation" about big cats paws not designed for walking on steel tracks? thats just plain simply rubbish.
yeah i agree, my guess is a melanistic leopard, as its not massive. From its movements, size and the fact that its walking along the narrow rail i think clearly shows its a big cat.
your right there has never been a recording of a black puma/courgar/mountain lion...(puma concolor). This is very possibly a melanistic leopard or juguar.
@animalsshouldlive There could be black puma‘s. There are black squirrels and black color mutations in other species, so a black puma theoretically could be possible. I think this this a Jaguar or a Panther, and scaling it against the tracks it's very obvious it's not just a normal house cat... Now the question is, what it is surviving on?
But on a serious note, we know that pumas don't have a melanistic variant because we've studied their genes and tried to "push" the variant to no avail. We have, however, pushed the varient in jaguar and leopards because they already have the gene variant.
@jonathan30005 it's a black jaguar or panther, there has never been a black puma recorded in history anywhere. I hope you don't have a degree because if you do you were a waste of your teacher's time.
@sparkyjohn100, there are many reports of dead deer and livestock carcasses, some of which have been found in trees. Ive been lucky enough to have seen a big black cat while dog walking with two friends, (we all agreed with what we were seeing). Big cats do roam the UK, Lynx were once native to the UK, so is it a surprise that a few numbers could still be about. FACT>>>> A lynx was captured in London after a witness report of a leopard sat on a garden wall.
The lynx was captured after being sedated by a vet with a dart and blow pipe. She was taken to London zoo and treated for a paw injury, she was given the name Lara there (2001). as for video footage, what do you expect? do you think i went out thinking im gonna see a big cat today, better take my high quality video camera out with me, the only reason we have any footage is a result of camera phones with 3.2 megapixels which is not ever gonna provide clear footage.
if big cats truly existed in the wild how come their dead carcess, dont surface..EVER!!... somebody stupidly suggested that this is coz their territory would be so vast!!.. but if they did exist , no matter where their territory spanned to it would never be taht far from humans... why else do lots of "sightings" occur!!.. human nature has this ting where we wnt to believe in things like big cats/ ufos/ bigfoot! in all the years people have been "spotting" big cats weve never had clear footage??
hi would rule out a dog and a "big" cat.. the feet of both would not be suitable for walking along the actual track.. the distance and the angle that the footage is taken 4rom and the fact that the footage is very grainy, taken on a mobile convinces me that this is a ferul "house cat".. possibly pregnant which wud make it bigger..also perspective goes out the window when viewing from such a distance.. semi wild "house cats" can have the same gait as a "big cat".. . big cats? bigfoot?
well, it doesn't walk like a wild cat, but then... if it's a released domesticated big cat..e.g. panther leopard... might explain it. Too big to be a regular domestic cat though...interesting.
I wouldn't rule out a dog, due to the tail. However, I tend towards domestic cat. You can see that the cat moves directly on the metal and a leopard would be to big for that.
@inotaishu1 i guess not, but... it's certainly bigger than a domestic cat, it may be a dog, certainly isn't a labrador though, .. the cameraman is a dog handler, although ..you'd think he'd be wise enought to knwo the difference but you never know, could have done it for publicity i guess.
I don't think so. Think of how broad a railway is and than on how broad the metal on which the being is walking from 0:24 onward. It's walking directly on the metal-line. And so the size is not too big for a domestic cat, one of mine is about 30 cm high and 70 cm long.
Have any tracks of this cat been reported in the snow? That would give a very accurate measurement of her size. As I remarked earlier, measured against the track she's certainly much bigger than the average domestic cat, but not big enough for an adult panther.
Huge feline footprints, in fact panther size, were found in snow near the Alwen reservoir in North Wales this week.
could well be a big cat, walks like a domestic though, good size. I have friends in Bodmin and their barn is a stop over to a large black leopard type cat, they leave it alone , it takes a sheep in there now and again, no trouble to their cats.
Guys look at the size of the cat when it walksalong the railway line its way too long for a normal cat! Just look at its tail! Its way too long! Its a big cat plain and simple!
Please that is just a BIG cat. Nothing special. Not a panther, not anything other than a large normal cat. And is anyone seriously mistaking this for a dog? The only thing that makes it resemble a dog is its speedy walking.
There have already been DNA releases in the UK and they have come back positive! The UK government simply doesnt want to admit their existence due to the fact that it would cause panic and panic is bad! There are instances of deer carcasses being found 40ft up in a tree...try telling me a squirrel did that!

OMG people, use your brains!!! it's a cat...an ordinary house cat. Look at the size of the marker by the side of the railroad tracks in comparison to the animal. If this animal were a panther, that marker would have to be 12 feet tall at least. In the world of *reality* those railroad markers are 3-4 feet high max. It's a black house cat. Sheesh.

@carcano38 you clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Places like dartmoor, areas in Berkshire, Cornwall and numerous other places have more than enough space to home big cats without coming into regular contact with people. And the climate has been proven to not be a problem. It is a fact that there are big cats in Britain and this is clearly one of them. Where do you think the literally hundreds of big cats went when released in the 80's??

With how dence the human population is in Europe it's impossible for such a large animal to survive. It would have gone the way of the wolves in Britain, which I believe were killed off in, like, 1300 or 1400 ad. A large cat turned loose would let it's presence to known in short order--and be killed. No, this is Britain's Bigfoot, lockness monster or whatever claim to fame. Stick with crop circles, more believable.

No, it is big trust me. I've installed rail lines in the south of england before and divet in the centre is more than a metre apart .566 of a metre to be exact, and this cat is streches further. So yes, its a big ass cat. Scottish wildcats grow big cause of the access to food left by humans.

Are they kidding? This looks like an absolutely normal black house cat! I checked on Wikipedia to make sure rail tracks in the UK are not much wider than here in Germany. I estimate this animal being less than 1 m in length. Also from the garden fence, the nearby plants etc, I don't see how this could be taken for anything else but a off-the-shelf (so to speak) housecat.

Pause this clip @ 0:34? Go and stand next to the yellow post and you'll find that it's about waist height to an average person (We know the location of this clip so anyone could go and see for themselves in theory). You can clearly see that the creature in the clip is tiny in comparison: A domestic house-cat.
Do you believe a creature as elusive as a puma or leopard would allow itself to be filmed by a man standing in plain view at quite close distance?

I keep coming back to these from time to time. I do believe that big cats exist in Britain - i have seen one with my own eyes and no not in a Zoo. As someone has already pointed out the footage is from a camera phone so it is very hard to see. But lets look at all the footage that we have and put all the facts together. I can tell you right now it aint no dog. But it aslo isnt a domestic cat. So what is it. Despite what people think there is a strong difference between pet and wild cats.

@bodders1029, well thats the sort of response you would expect from a dentist. ive seen one in a field close to my local wood, others saw it at the same time. It was a melanistic leopard not a pussy cat. It looked similar to the cat in this video. measure its length to the width of the tracks. Altho i have seen for my own eyes, there is plenty of evidence pointing towards Big Cats in the UK, go speak to a Farmer about their loss of live stock.

See that yellow post by the side of the tracks? There are thousands of those alongside every railway line in the country. They stand 3ft (90 cm) high. You can clearly see that in comparison the "big-cat" in this clip stands about 1ft (30cm) high at the shoulder and is obviously someones pet moggy.
The standard gauge railway line measures 4ft 8ins between tracks. You can all see that this creature is not a Puma or a black Leopard. Case closed.

Just look at the limb size (drastically shorter than human limbs compared to the length of the body when horizontal) and the joints of the legs; if a man was crawling in a suit there would clear excessive bending at the joints as we obviously are not designed to walk on all fours like this big cat! Secondly watch the movement of the walk and the body doesn't look to be struggling or..

What do you mean by "Puma". There is no such thing like a black puma to my mind. Might be a black leopard though - a panther.

yeah i agree, my guess is a melanistic leopard, as its not massive. From its movements, size and the fact that its walking along the narrow rail i think clearly shows its a big cat.

@animalsshouldlive There could be black puma‘s. There are black squirrels and black color mutations in other species, so a black puma theoretically could be possible.

But on a serious note, we know that pumas don't have a melanistic variant because we've studied their genes and tried to "push" the variant to no avail. We have, however, pushed the varient in jaguar and leopards because they already have the gene variant.

@sparkyjohn100, there are many reports of dead deer and livestock carcasses, some of which have been found in trees. Ive been lucky enough to have seen a big black cat while dog walking with two friends, (we all agreed with what we were seeing). Big cats do roam the UK, Lynx were once native to the UK, so is it a surprise that a few numbers could still be about. FACT>>>> A lynx was captured in London after a witness report of a leopard sat on a garden wall.
3isthemagicnumber101 1 year ago
The lynx was captured after being sedated by a vet with a dart and blow pipe. She was taken to London zoo and treated for a paw injury, she was given the name Lara there (2001). as for video footage, what do you expect? do you think i went out thinking im gonna see a big cat today, better take my high quality video camera out with me, the only reason we have any footage is a result of camera phones with 3.2 megapixels which is not ever gonna provide clear footage.

sparkyjohn100 2 years ago
hi would rule out a dog and a "big" cat.. the feet of both would not be suitable for walking along the actual track.. the distance and the angle that the footage is taken 4rom and the fact that the footage is very grainy, taken on a mobile convinces me that this is a ferul "house cat".. possibly pregnant which wud make it bigger..also perspective goes out the window when viewing from such a distance.. semi wild "house cats" can have the same gait as a "big cat".. . big cats? bigfoot?
sparkyjohn100 2 years ago
well, it doesn't walk like a wild cat, but then... if it's a released domesticated big cat..e.g. panther leopard... might explain it. Too big to be a regular domestic cat though...interesting.

dannyjar100 2 years ago 2
I don't think so. Think of how broad a railway is and than on how broad the metal on which the being is walking from 0:24 onward. It's walking directly on the metal-line. And so the size is not too big for a domestic cat, one of mine is about 30 cm high and 70 cm long.

Have any tracks of this cat been reported in the snow? That would give a very accurate measurement of her size. As I remarked earlier, measured against the track she's certainly much bigger than the average domestic cat, but not big enough for an adult panther.
Huge feline footprints, in fact panther size, were found in snow near the Alwen reservoir in North Wales this week.
