Grant Denyer claims to have found the home of the mythical Blue Mountains panther on his Bathurst property… and vows to record video evidence
He recently admitted that he’s spotted the mythical Blue Mountains black panther on his farm.
And on Monday, Grant Denyer continued his search to find the elusive creature.
The 43-year-old Family Feud host was out exploring his property near Bathurst when he came across a large hole burrowed under a tree, which he shared in a video to Instagram.

‘Welcome to the X-files where we are trying to determine what lives in that hole,’ said Grant, referencing the popular ’90s TV show that centred around two FBI agents investigating paranormal activity.
The Gold Logie winner added in the caption that he has seen the mysterious panther three times.
‘Some say I’ve had too many Quarrentini’s in lockdown or I’ve just gone mad. Both are probably true,’ he joked, vowing to find some evidence.
‘Got the infrared night vision cameras set up to finally bust this one open. Get ready to believe people. The panther is real,’ he said vowing to find proof

Last month Grant told News.com.au that he’d not only seen the panther on his farm, he’d caught it on camera.
‘I’ll give you an exclusive, and don’t think I’m crazy, but I am on the panther bandwagon right now,’ he told the publication.

He clarified: ‘I’m talking about the famous panthers that roam the Australian bush.’
Reported sightings of black panthers in Australia first emerged over a 100 years ago, but there’s still no hard evidence of their existence.
Still, Grant maintains he’s seen the animal twice at the bottom of his farm, and claims to have video proof, even though it’s ‘blurry and zoomed 10 times on my iPhone’.

He went on to say he recently installed ‘infrared and motion-detecting night cameras’ on his property in the hope of getting a better look at the animal.
Grant shared a home video of what he believes was the black panther on his Facebook page in November 2018.
‘FRESH PANTHER EVIDENCE!! I shot this yesterday. Massive, black Panther roaming our bottom paddock,’ he captioned it.

And after speaking to other locals, Grant said he’s more convinced than ever that the animal was the mysterious black panther.
‘I had heard about the myth many a time. I’d quizzed locals in the area of Bathurst and Lithgow – there’d been many a tale,’ he told news.com.au.
‘So I was like, “I’ve just seen the famous panther.”‘
