nothing for 25m radius... or up in the trees! lol

ha, and it sure looks like it's been nibbled enough! :o

true, but disease couldn't of taken it's head off at the neck and dragged it onto a game trail away! :D

The plot thickens... No sign of tracks or skat... just a body-less young deer! :D

take out the puritabs and put in a small bottle of iodine? Duel purpose, sterilise water and wounds! Also, im not sure what matches you have, but the UCO Stormproof Matches are some of the best i've come across.

Thanks for the link, again, this image from the Andean Cat link could also have looked close to the other's under the circumstances...

Sorry Jonathan, it was a very diffrent beast! :) Too tall, too thin, tail's too short and the head's too small! Very impressive if that is what the skull belong too!! Some of the images do appear to be very simular! But couldn't say for sure... unless i manage to get a photo or prints or...

Thanks for all showing so much interest in the thread. As i mentioned in the OP, the sound was that of a branch creaking in the wind, but in a short burst, no more that 1-2 seconds max. I've been around and heard many'a fox, this animal had clear markings and a feline shape. To my...

We did have a look for tracks but it was on leaf litter, so there wasn't anything conclusive.

Thanks for the replies guys. JonathanD's thread is a great read! :D No need for the apology Redandshane, if i saw a newbie claiming to see a big cat in an unusual area i would probably be just as skeptical! I've grown up with foxes calling and i was only 10m away, so i could see it in...

Hi Guys, I think i spotted a Wildcat tonight :rolleyes: I was up the top of a hill in the Surrey area with my brother, testing out his new Ghillie Kettle and we kept hearing what sounded like a big branch creaking. But in a short burst. Then another creak started responding to the...

or even a couple of these?

Best item to ever be traded and past around the camp fire is a bottle of Rum! :rolleyes: ...or if not that, how about some glow sticks? No idea about bug spray in Michigan, but i don't see that a small bottle of 50% deet would go amiss!
