Panther Kills Welsh Family's Pets
[Original headline: PANTHER KILLS FAMILY'S PETS]
A wild panther was blamed yesterday for killing a family's pets in their back garden.
Police investigating the attacks on a goose, a chicken and two ducks said a "big cat" is on the prowl.
Gerry Woodhouse saw the animal on his garden wall at Blaenavon, Gwent, three days earlier.
The birds were part of a menagerie kept by Mr Woodhouse and his partner Susan Fiander. She said: "There was absolute carnage."
Gwent police said: "We are taking the matter very seriously - we've had several reliable sightings."
