Hi I was wondering whether or not anyone has had an experience or signting of a big cat in the wild in britian.

Many Thanks

Chris!

Why not read the posts on here? Or are you a troll? We have had a thread going on this theme for several weeks. If you have a sensible contribution to make then make it. Otherwise butt out.

Calm down!
There's no reason to suspect that this is anything other than a genuine enquiry from a new poster who doesn't really know there way around the site, and may not have read many posts (join date Oct 2010, 11 posts to date).

Theresa posted a link to the recent thread and received thanks for doing so - it may well be that 243Kingfisher does have something to contribute if he/she isn't put off from doing so! (I haven't seen anything that suggests trolling).

I can't bear the thought of a new thread arising on the topic - it's been flogged to death already...

The poster meant no harm, but I understand Styrbjorn's comment - the BC thread turned into a weary 'believers v sceptics'...every angle/viewpoint/scrap of evidence was thoroughly explored/chewed/digested.

People were getting inexplicably offended by the end and the 'big cats' themselves were shrinking in size.

It's better that people go to that thread & read everything that's already been said thus far before posting...so that the same tired old points are not raised/debated ad infinitum.

Personally, I'm not going back to that thread until there's photo evidence of a big cat biting someone's bum!

Styrbjorn's comment was downright rude IMHO.
Newcomers should be told of existing threads but to tell them to 'butt out' is not really acceptable or very welcoming.

Yes, I know, his comment is clearly not justifiable in any way - I think he wrongly thought the original poster was trolling.

I was just pointing out that it was a touchy subject....some people took things quite personally on that thread (I don't even recall exactly who or what was said).......in the hope that 243kingfisher will understand the background/context to the comment - and hopefully not take it to heart.

There are enough petty feuds/squabbles on corners of the forum already
