POLICE in Northern Ireland are investigating a
series of potential "big cat" attacks in Northern Ireland after a number
of sheep have been found savaged.
Officers say the sheep seem to have been the victims of violent animal attacks with other animals in the area also being found bloodied and injured.
Some animals have been reported as missing with a police spokeswoman saying that residents are claiming to have seen a big cat in the same area.“Under no circumstances should any wild or undomesticated animal be approached.”A police spokeswoman
She added: "While we would stress that there has been no confirmation of the presence of any 'big cat' in the area, we would ask that anyone who has lost sheep or other livestock in similar fashion recently or anyone who sees an animal which they believe to be dangerous, get in contact police.
It is reported that the dead animals were found at numerous farms over the past few weeks.
