Over the last 50 years there have been 8 sightings? By late night walkers in the wood. They have night vision and are nocturnal. They walk about the village at night coming out of their wood habitat.

They are carnivores and are hated by local farmers. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">In 2014 Mr Henderson gave a local speech to the village about the animal saying he saw it one night after putting the cattle in for the night during the winter months.

As the other&#8217;s from our group went down another path. For fun. It would be fun if my partner hadn&#8217;t hurt his foot and was about a mile behind. I knew if I ran he would go for my injured friend. I stayed still. I could see it clearly now. It was about 4 meters from the shoulder. Little did I know my friend took a picture of it and the bright lite scared it off. I will never forget that day.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Banton puma was thought to be bought at a market before Banton\u00a0 settles travelled. to Banton it escaped in the near by woods.
