This quick clip was taken near Batemans Bay, NSW of a suspected melanistic big cat. The witness had seen the cat in the middle of the field, prior to turning around to try and capture the animal on camera. The interesting thing about where this cat was filmed, is that it appeared to be watching a young family playing in their yard from in the next paddock. This in itself is alarming, as these animals are starting to appear closer & closer to urban areas.
As with most cases the footage is shaky, blurry and grainy, but understandably so as these sightings are over in the blink of an eye. Although it is very hard to tell what animal it is, you can clearly see the size of the animal by using the windmill and the tree in the background as a scale guide.
Inconclusive at best, but credit to the witness for having the presence of mind to not only turn around for a second look, but also grab out his phone and attempt to get footage of the mystery animal.
