A mythical big cat known as 'The Beast of Bont' is alive and stalking the British hills - feeding off sheep, locals claim. Farmers say numerous flocks are being regularly killed by a ''bloody big' feline - and have even called in the police.
Rumours of a large feline lurking in the Ceredigion area of Wales emerged as far back as the 1970s when a series of sheep were found eaten. There have been numerous cases since including the killing of 12 sheep in 1981 in the village of Bont - giving the beast its name - and the slaughter of 20 in 2012.
Local farmer Suzanne Kay last weekend spotted a mystery beast near her home in Penuwch - which she says may have been a puma or another big cat.
