Pine Marten "Big Cats" Spotted in England First Time in a Century

A rare Pine Marten “Big cat” was spotted by a photographer in the Shropshire Forest in England near Wales, this was the first sighting in 100 years.



Pine Martins have been extinct in England since 1915. The Pine Marten is from the weasel family and looks like a large black cat.



For years people in England have reported seeing big cats, that are large and black in color. Some credit the sightings to escaped panthers from zoos or from private collections that were popular in the 70’s which are now illegal or for common house cats.



Perhaps the rediscovery of the rare pine marten in British forests can account for some of these fascinating encounters.

Valley of Fire Nevada Drive Through Time Lapse HD

The Valley of Fire derives its name from red sandstone formations, formed from great shifting sand dunes during the age of dinosaurs, 150 million years ago. Complex uplifting and faulting of the region, followed by extensive erosion, have created the present landscape.

Other important rock formations include limestones, shales, and conglomerates. Prehistoric users of the Valley of Fire included the Basket Maker people and later the Anasazi Pueblo farmers from the nearby fertile Moapa Valley.

The span of approximate occupation has been dated from 300 B.C.E. to 1150 C.E. Their visits probably involved hunting, food gathering, and religious ceremonies, although scarcity of water would have limited the length of their stay. Fine examples of rock art left by these ancient peoples can be found at several sites within the park.
