Lion on the loose in Essex!!

Lion on the loose in Essex (apparently).  :laugh:

 My wife is visiting family in the area, local news says "STAY IN DOORS". The misses and her sister have decided against talking the dog for a walk this morning!!  :signLOL:

what i don't understand is although there have been credible sightings of it nobody has reported a lion missing. i would have thought that keeping such a beast would be highly regulated and surely someone should know if they have a lion missing! i suppose it could be the mother of all pranks!

I must admit I laughed out loud when I heard that news flash on Ch5 last night while watching a movie.

Ooops! It's probably an illegal Lion called Agness.

As reported in The Sun (so it must be true!):

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4506955/First-picture-of-lion-on-loose-in-Essex.html

Looks suspiciously like a cardboard cutout......  :popcornsoda:

But I want its dung to keep cats away from my garden (saves getting out the catapult each time).

The zoo have released a photo of the creature,
Police have warned the public there is a real danger of him licking you to death.
