SIGHTINGS UK: Big Cat Fears (Huffington Post)

A mysterious creature is slaughtering animals in Northern Ireland and experts fear a puma is on the loose.

Police are now investigating after a number of sheep were found savaged following a series of potential "big cat" attacks.

It is unknown what mauled the dead animals but local residents are said to have seen a large cat-like animal.

Witnesses have described seeing a 'big cat'

There have been more than 20 sightings of a wild cat on Northern Ireland's north coast.

USPCA chief executive Stephen Philpott said he was convinced the cat was a puma.

"Now the challenge is how we remove it from the Northern Ireland countryside," he said.

Officers said the sheep appeared to have been victims of "violent animal attacks" while other livestock have been found bloodied and injured, with further animals having been reported missing.

Speaking to the BBC, Mr Philpott said that this animal was an "amateur" who was used to receiving his food on a plate.

Mystery big cat is spotted in Shropshire again

Jack Humphrey, 20, was driving home from work at the William Withering pub in Wellington in the early hours when he says the creature leapt in front of his car.

He said: “I was driving past the new houses in Trench Lock, where the roofing centre is, when it ran across the road. It was huge.

“It must have been three times the size of a fox and it was jet black.

“Its tail was thin and long, it was definitely a panther.”

Previous sightings of a big cat in Telford took place in 2008, when Shropshire Star reader Sarah Leeder said she came across the animal while she was walking on the trail near Apley Woods.
