A LYNX is on the loose in Ceredigion.
Dyfed-Powys Police has said that sometime over the last five days a female lynx has escaped from the Animalarium in Borth, Ceredigion.
A police statement said: “The lynx is unlikely to approach people, but may attempt to take livestock or pets as food. We are therefore advising public in the area to be alert and vigilant.
“We do however advise that the animal should not be approached as it could become aggressive if cornered. It is believed that the lynx remains in fairly close proximity to the Animalarium, but of course it could potentially go further afield.
“Any sightings should be reported to us by calling 101, or if the lynx is in the process of taking an animal, or appears caught or injured, then please call 999.”
