Just need the DNA results to come back now for the final proof…

Update: No results yet but further speculation:

http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2012/jan/20/woodchester-wild-cat-dna-tests?newsfeed=true

“Since the trust announced that DNA tests were being carried out, Armstrong has had about 20 reports of sightings. A second deer corpse has been found on private land close to Woodchester and is also being tested by Allaby.”
