AN ILLUSTRATED talk examining the evidence for big cats in Gloucestershire will be held in Stroud.
Experts Rick Minter and Frank Tunbridge will discuss the implications of feral big cats for people and other wildlife at St Laurence Church Hall from 7.30pm – 9.30pm on Thursday, March 15.
A string of big cat sightings near Stroud have made national headlines in recent weeks following the discovery of deer carcasses in Woodchester.
DNA taken from the deer showed no signs of big cat activity but Frank and Rick have amassed a vast record of evidence to suggest the creatures are living and breeding in the county.
To book tickets, priced £3 for adults and £2 for children, contact organisers Stroud Valleys Project on 01453 753 358 or email
