About the event
Exhibition by Big Cat Conversations
Britain’s big cats are the focus of a month-long exhibition at the Dean Heritage Centre from the 3rd of April until the 4th of May.
With evidence from DNA and tooth marks on bones, British big cats are emerging from myth to reality. Believed to result from discarded pets, three species of large cats are described across Britain. These cats now seem to be adapting well to Britain’s woods and forests, and live secret lives as stealthy deer cullers.
