8. Boy Finds Cheetah in His Garden
Place: England’s Cambridgeshire
Year Found: 2008 Estimated Value: $1,000–$2,000*
In 2008, at the age of nine, Toby Taylor made a revelation that sent him racing to his mother. In his Cambridgeshire backyard garden, he discovered a cheetah. Instead of attempting to pet it, he ran in and told his mother, who initially didn’t think he was telling the truth.

Jules, his mother, called the emergency number as soon as she saw it for herself. The cheetah was, as it happened, an escapee from the Hamerton Zoo. The police and zookeepers arrived shortly after she made her 999 call to retrieve the spotted, nimble cat, who was probably perplexed as to how he got into someone’s garden.
