BEAST OF BODMIN

SOURCE: http://www.localmythsandlegends.com/uk/beast-of-bodmin/
like The Beast of Exmoor, is a phantom wild cat 
   which ranges in Cornwall in the United Kingdom. Bodmin Moor became a centre of these sightings with occasional reports of mutilated slain livestock: the alleged panther-like cats of the same region came to be popularly known as the Beast of Bodmin Moor.

There have been around sixty big cat sightings recorded in the area 
   since 1983. The beast is described by those claiming to have seen it 
   as looking like a Black Panther or big cat with large white-yellow 
   eyes and it's size ranges from 3-5 feet long for the body, with a 
   tail of roughly 18-24 inches. The creature makes the usual hissing 
   and growling sounds of a large cat such as a panther but has also 
   been reported to have made noises which sound like a woman 
   screaming.

A long held hypothesis suggested the possibility that alien big cats at 
   large in the United Kingdom could have been imported as part of 
   private collections or zoos, later escaped or set free. An escaped 
   big cat could not be reported to the authorities due to the 
   illegality of owning and importing the animals.

The Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food decided to conduct an 
   official investigation in 1995. The study's findings decided there 
   was "no verifiable evidence” of exotic felines loose in Britain, and 
   that the mauled farm animals could have been attacked by common 
   indigenous species. The report stated that "the investigation could 
   not prove that a 'big cat' is not present."

However the police have released classified pictures of large cats shot 
   by farmers.

Less than a week after the government report, a boy was walking by the 
   River Fowey when he discovered a large cat skull. Measuring about 
   four inches wide and seven inches long (10 × 18 cm), the skull was 
   minus its lower jaw but possessed two sharp, prominent canines that 
   suggested that it might have been a leopard. The story hit the 
   national press at about the same time of the official denial of 
   alien big cat evidence on Bodmin Moor.

The skull was sent to the Natural History Museum in London for 
   verification. They determined that it was a genuine skull from a 
   young male leopard, but also found that the cat had not died in 
   Britain and that the skull had been imported as part of a 
   leopard-skin rug. The back of the skull was cleanly cut off in a way 
   that is commonly used to mount the head on a rug. There was an egg 
   case inside the skull that had been laid by a tropical cockroach 
   that could not possibly be found in Britain. There were also cut 
   marks on the skull indicating the flesh had been scraped off with a 
   knife, and the skull had begun to decompose only after a recent 
   submersion in water.

OWLMAN

Owlman - hovering over Mawnan Church in Cornwall, England - Some 
   investigators speculate that because Mawnan Church is built atop a 
   ley line.

SOURCE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owlman
In Alien Animals (1985), British paranormal researchers Janet and Colin 
   Bord pointed out that Mawnan church is built in the middle of a 
   prehistoric earthwork. They suggested that the church may be built 
   on a ley line (a straight line that passes through and links several 
   ancient sites), and speculated that the appearance of the Owlman may 
   be a manifestation of earth energy in this place. 

However in Modern Mysteries of the World (1989), they retracted this 
   and stated that they believed that the sightings were probably of an 
   escaped aviary bird rather than a paranormal phenomenon. It has also 
   been suggested that the whole thing may have been a hoax by Shiels, 
   who was a "Surrealist painter and writer, showman, wizard and 
   arch-hoaxer"
