Ince Marshes Big Cat (February 2021)

The following account was reported on by Olivia Williams in a Cheshire Live article dated 02/02/2021. ‘A ‘suspected ‘big cat’ sighting was reported in Ellesmere Port on December 16, by a worker named Andy.

He claimed he saw a “large but slender animal” at Ince Marshes in Ellesmere Port at around 7.30am.

Andy said he reported for his job that morning and as he approached his work area he saw a mysterious creature which was “cat-like” and had a very long tail.

Later that morning, Andy took a photo of what appears to look like a paw print in the mud, 300 metres from where he spotted the suspected ‘big cat.’

However, he said as the area is teeming with wildlife and is a sensitive ecological site, the print might not be connected.’
