A MASSIVE cat has been photographed near to the River Dee. Witnesses reported seeing a “massive cat like a panther” near Tŷ Mawr Country Park, prowling the short section of the River Dee between the Cefn Mawr viaduct and the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct. It is the third sighting of a mystery creature in the area in a 24 hour period this month. In a report to Puma Watch North Wales, a group set up to investigate such encounters, Craig Davies and Nicole Wynne said they were sitting on the banks of the river at around 6.15pm on Friday, April 16. It was then that Craig took a photograph showing a creature that Nicole described as “jet black and built differently to any kind of dog”.
