SIGHTINGS: Somerset big cat sightings

More sightings of big cats are reportedly being seen in Somerset after one woman claimed she saw one "as large as an Alsatian" run through her garden.
Somerset Live recently spoke to Mrs Bond, who lives in a housing estate on the outskirts of Paulton, after she discovered a black animal enter and walk through her back garden on Saturday, February 15.

Mrs Bond, who didn't want to give her first name, described the animal as "powerful-looking with long legs", had "short black hair" and was "at least big as a large Alsatian".
