Two residents claims to have spotted 'puma' in the UK - and one witness said he was left terrified because he was just 10m away from the beast.
The first witness, named Brenden, said the animal "scared the life" out of him as he walked in a field behind his house and came face-to-face with the big cat.
Another man, Graham Evans, also spotted the creature and managed to capture a photo - although regrettably he was further away and the image is a little blurry, as the Daily Star reports.
Now, residents of Denbigh, Wales, are on high alert as they keep an eye out for a puma, which is native to Canada, North America, and South America.

Brenden, who reported the incident to Puma Watch North Wales, said: "Walked behind my house to dispose of some wastewater near the field behind my property and I spooked something big and black that bolted away from me causing the undergrowth to rustle.
"The noise made me look in the direction of the noise and what I seen was far too big to be a domestic cat and it had reared onto its back legs to pivot and run.
"I'm a former gamekeeper and know it wasn't a fox or badger, it was far too big, leapt away rather than running. Scared the life out of me, I was around 10 metres from it."
Separately, Graham said he was walking in fields behind Denbigh Castle last week when he experienced his own encounter.
He claimed to have seen the cat on January 12 drinking from a nearby cattle trough.
He explained: "I was alone on a walk in the fields behind Denbigh Castle when I first spotted the animal. It was some distance away and appeared to be drinking from a cattle water trough.
"It then jumped down, walked several feet from the trough then crouched down very low in the grass. It must have spotted me.
"When I am out and about I always carry a small compact camera. I just managed to take a photo before it sprang up then jumped over a fence into the next field then ran away into the distance very fast then disappeared."
