Episode 49 Phantom Cats, Tasmanian Tigers, and Oklahoma Jaguars

Today, Laura, Dean and Krysta discuss the concept of Alien Big Cats or Phantom Cats. These are not cats from other worlds or ghostly cats but rather these are large, predatory cats that are believed to be discovered well outside their natural range. Suspected phantom cats include the Black panther-like beasts that have plagued England for almost as long as it's been an island country; the Australian Tootanoola Tiger, a large cat-like predator that even when it was shot and killed it was dubbed an Abyssinian Wolf, which is a species that doesn't exist. We discuss the 'blue' or Maltese tigers of China, gray smoky beasts that appear as suddenly as a shadow and disappear just as quickly. Tasmanian Tigers, jaguars spotted on trap cams in Oklahoma and so many more. So join us in this world-spanning episode as we hunt Alien Big Cats. And remember, next week is our 50th show and we will be using listener submitted stories so share away!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.
