'None of us are resting properly at night. Children are a light snack for something of that size.'
Residents of a Cornish village are not ‘resting at night’ after a ‘big cat’ mauled a dog and chased its owner.
James, an engineer, said that two nights later he saw two ‘large green eyes’ reflecting his torch in the garden, which then started to run towards him.Advertisement Police have now confirmed that prints recovered in mud belong to a big cat, with one even reported to be as much as five inches wide. A puma is large black cat, while what people refer to as a panther is often actually a leopard – which can change its colour to blend in with the dark.
