Big Cat Paw Prints Found In Kent

by Jason Clarke

A man from Sittingbourne, in Kent has discovered what appear to be panther tracks in the snow on his driveway.

The unnamed man took a photograph of the huge paw prints, and placed his own foot alongside to illustrate how large they were. He then forwarded the image to Neil Arnold from Kent Big Cat Research who is almost convinced they were made by a big cat prowling the Sittingbourne countryside.

“A majority of such prints turn out to be dogs, but I believe 70 per cent that this print belongs to a cat.” Mr Arnold told Kent Online.

“The man lives in an isolated spot and the prints had come from woodland, crossed the road and gone up the driveway. One of the prints was on the rear windscreen of his car, suggesting that a very large animal had bounded across his vehicle.”

Mr Arnold is a firm believer that big cats are indeed roaming the British countryside.

“Big cats were kept as pets in the 1960s but then in 1976 the Dangerous Animals’ Act was introduced – people panicked and let them loose. Travelling zoos were also very popular many years ago. They used to have lynxes and pumas and if one escaped they weren’t likely to report it.”
