A British photographer has snapped a picture of a large black panther in a Welsh forest. His picture validates the many sightings of big cats reported in the area.

He stumbled upon the sleek, black out-of-place cat during a bush walk, hunting for a good location for a photo shoot. He came across the panther gorging itself on a pigeon carcass and managed to take a photograph before slipping away.
