Stock image of a puma A High Wycombe walker got a huge shock when she spotted what she thought was a puma in a popular woodland. Natalie Godliman said that despite long-term rumours of big cats lurking in the Chilterns, she always thought they were a myth – until she saw what she described as a tan-coloured puma around Keep Hill Woods on Thursday. She said she has lived in the area for 29 years and visits the woods every day but has never seen anything like that before. Describing what she saw, Natalie told the Bucks Free Press: “It was basking in the sun in the long grass. I couldn’t tell what on earth it was then it got up and it bounded across the field and I saw its silhouette and long thin tail.
