Dramatic video footage has been captured of a mystery big cat roaming Cambridgeshire dubbed 'the Fen Tiger'.
The giant cat has taken on near mythical status with locals who have been reporting sightings of the beast for more than 30 years.
However, few people have ever actually been able to snap a pic of the mysterious creature.
But that's all changed now as one man claims to have captured moving footage of the beast, reports CambridgeshireLive.
Jamie Newby, 46, from Wisbech and his fiancée, Hayley spotted the cat about 400 yards away from their AirBnB in Ipswich.
He claims the cryptid, the scientific name for a mythical animal, is bigger than a Labrador.
He said: "Our first thought was maybe it was a Muntjac deer as we had seen one the day before in the same field.
"It was my fiancée who said that it looked like a big cat. We grabbed some binoculars the owner had left in the room.
"I grabbed my camera and used the zoom function to film what you can see in the footage.
"Sadly my memory card was only 2GB and the footage maxed the card out and my camera shut down as it pounced on or killed something.
"Only after searching online did we see it could have been a Scottish Wild Cat.
Muscle mass
"The size of it instantly struck me. I'd seen a dog walker walking a Labrador in the same exact spot the day before and the cat looked bigger than that," he added.
"The neck, the muscle mass. I've read a little more about them and they do hunt early between 6-7am and they like staying on the perimeter of fields."
He added: "My fiancée said it had a scary, evil face. She's never liked cats!"
