I know for a fact that black cats are seen as witches’ familiars.  Yeah. So is it actually a bad thing if you see a black cat crossing your path in the UK. Some people still believe that, I have to admit if I'm on the way to an exam or if I'm doing something very important and a black cat tries to walk across my path, I do tend to........shoo it away, or trying to scare it away.You're like not superstitious but you're somewhat superstitious. I don't want to .You do not wanna jinx it.I don't wanna tempt fate.You don't wanna tempt fate. Yes, now to tempt fate here is a little bit like in Chinese we say宁可信其有不可信其无。 Exactly. Yeah,  but you also got some lores about big cats not just cat cat. Well yeah, but these are based on modern folklore. So these are called ABCs, Alien Big Cats. Why alien, not alien ET. Alien as in foreign. So these creatures are described as being similar to panthers, leopards or pumas. Now this is a little bit of an urban legend. This is kind of more modern folklore. But there have been sightings of big cats in Britain and these have been reported for decades when cows, sheeps have been killed. They found strange paw prints in remote areas. This is so weird. I mean you don't have any wild live population of these cats. This is the thing, theories about the origin of these big cats, normally come from animals that were released after the dangerous wild animals act of 1976. So before then rich people could keep pumas, leopards.  So now it's illegal to keep these exotic animals, even if you're super rich, Well you need to get a license.They probably can get a license. So some people say actually maybe these are the creatures that were released by the pet owners. They can't just release them on the streets of England. It does happen, it does happen. This is ridiculous.But they don't release them on the streets. For example, there's the Beast of Bodmin Moor in Cornwall, which is. Oh I think I've been there, Bodmin, there's a jail there, right? There's a jail. There is a very, very mysterious part of the UK, very bleak, lots of fog, lots of mist.Forests?
