We have plans in place should it turn up but sadly I really dont expect it to be alive. Arrangements will hopefully be made for a PM of the carcass as it's of scientific interest because there isn't an awful lot known of this species.

I promise to keep folks posted

Hi Craig

You might know a friend of mine, John Simpson? He works with the MOD Police and is a Wildlife Liason Officer.

Cheers, John
