I know for a fact that we have big cats in North Carolina. In 2003 I was a small town police chief. Another officer and I rode out of town to check on a crack house in Duplin County. On the way out he was playing with the cars alley lights as we saw deer almost every night in the fields around town. We were driving along checking out the fields when a big black cat was seen about 40 yards across a cow pasture. When the light hit the cat it stopped and looked at us over his right shoulder. The other officer yelled "oh crap what's that!!?" I hit the brakes and we got a good look at a cat that was well over four feet long walking across the field. I backed up and tried to keep him in the light but he turned and ran away from us. Both of us are avid hunters and have seen everything that lives in the woods around here and neither have ever seen anything like the big cat we saw that night.
