Lion in Essex

I suppose copying this photo onto the memory card of a cheap compact, then dropping the camera into a nearby field, would be naughty?
 
It will be a miracle if they don't shoot it.
They even shoot stray cows for reasons of 'Health and Safety' because no-one knows how to quietly herd them these days.

Well I certainly ain't going to offer to 'quietly herd' this b****r :nono: :lol:
 
Someone in Essex needs to go to specsavers. It'll turn out to be a retriever with a silly hair cut.

Essex police are working with experts from Colchester Zoo who believe the reports to be genuine after being shown a photograph by a member of the public.

One word: Photoshop :D:cool::lol:
 
Apparently it had been heard roaring about 10pm this evening.

If it is real I'm hoping it will scoff the entire cast of TOWIE and do the world a favour ;)

Why show them a photo, surely they know what a lion looks like :lol:
 
Since no zoos or parks have lost one, will police be looking for a house with a cat flap that takes up half the door? :thinking:
 
I'm going for hoax or mistaken ID...although I don't think I'd be so confident about that if I was camping in the area tonight!
 
Didn't the news report mention some circus or other being around where it had gone missing?

Wonder if a labrador fell in some candy floss??

Two campers are getting ready for bed, when they hear a lion roar nearby, and decide they'd better get away.
One of them immediately starts pulling off his walking boots and putting on some expensive running shoes.
"What are you doing that for?" his companion asks, "You can't outrun a lion!"
The first guy grins. "I don't have to outrun the lion." :D

Whim-away :D

In the jungle the mighty jungle

Nothing moves that fast in Essex Vicky. A copper got told off the other day for treading on a snail, he said it had been following him all day. :D

Good god, I wouldn't eat that and certainly wouldn't serve such unpalatable food to a cat, probably turn bright orange and keel over..

When you have a critter that big you give it a bloody key :lol:
 
According to the BBC, the circus nearby have said they don't own any lions and all their animals are accounted for.

Be interested to see the photograph that has been passed to the police. Funny how they have not released it. Got to wonder if it will be like all the pics of the Loch Ness monster, UFO's etc. Not only are they completely unconvincing, most are just laughable.
 
Perhaps its looking for political asylum and if thats the case it will just disappear and go missing never to be found again. :lol:
 
Saw the couple who saw it on the news earlier. They said it looked like a lion but the ears were the wrong shape - er so it's not a lion then.
