Anyone heard from Willpar ?!?!?!?!
At last Jacksparrow's dreams have come truuuuuuuu - a large cat is loose
.
Not Bodmin Moor but genuinely Dartmoor and genuinely a lynx.
Must have been the boss's day off - they'd only had the poor thing for a few hours and it had dug itself out and runned away
. Someone's in trubble
.
Crate of HB for the first pix .......

Lynx are proper big cats so they don't count. We have proper big `uns round our way with big teeth and claws and eyes that glow in the dark.

The lynx has been spotted in farmland near to where the zoo is. That was on the late night local news. They have put out bated traps to try and catch it. Will know more at 6:30 am Friday.

Is still on the loose, so no luck last night in catching it.

The police were using a drone with thermal imaging today. But is still on the loose. They have an idea of the area it is in, and not to far away from where it got free from.

Hope Lynxie meets another lynx, they evade capture, live on Dartmoor happy ever after and raise lots of little lynxexes's.
I'd go ......

I was reading in a paper today that the errant Lynx is still AWOL.
Has anyone been round to Willpar's house to see if that big Ginger Tom stray he took in last week bears any resemblance
