Anyone else seeing huge black cats in rural Ohio lately?

Not in Ohio myself but this is very familiar territory. We get big black cat reports round Glastonbury and the Somerset Levels quite regularly, been following them for years. The descriptions are always the same - something much larger than a domestic cat, low to the ground, moving fast.

What strikes me is how consistent witness accounts tend to be even when the people dont know each other. Size, movement, colour. Hard to dismiss that as mass hysteria or misidentification.

Have any of the Ohio sightings been near farmland? Over here thats almost always where they turn up, usually around dawn or dusk. Worth checking if theres any livestock losses in the same areas too, that often goes unreported but its a real indicator somethings out there.

Would love to hear more details if anyone has them. Photos, locations, time of day. The more data points the better picture we can build up.

Not really my area of interest but I'm from Suffolk and we get the odd big cat report here too, so its not just Somerset or Ohio. What I don't get is why there's never any decent photographic evidence after all these years of smartphones being everywhere. Everyone's got a camera in their pocket 24/7 and yet we're still stuck with blurry nonsense. Either these things are genuinely rare and people just get caught off guard, or something else is going on. I lean towards escaped exotic pets personally, the Dangerous Wild Animals Act in the 70s probably released a load of them into the countryside. Not saying thats the full story but it seems like the most boring and obvious explanation.
