Пояснение:
В данном тексте рассказывается о существовании странных существ, похожих на больших кошек, в британской сельской местности. Хотя эти существа обычно не нападают на людей, иногда они нападают на овец, когда они голодны. Как они попали в Британию? Одно из предположений заключается в том, что в 1970-х годах многие цирки прекратили использовать "больших кошек" в своих шоу. В результате животные остались без дома, и некоторые их владельцы отпустили их на волю в сельскую местность. Теперь, спустя тридцать или сорок лет, количество "больших кошек" в британской сельской местности растет.
