That is a good sized bobcat and a small coyote. The confrontation took place at my ranch at 0918 on October 9th, 2016, according to the game camera.
This shows the coyote 12 minutes earlier. I suspect she sensed the bobcat at that time, but it did not show up on the camera.
I keep the water running to attract wildlife. The water hole is about 10 yards from the pistol range backstop.
Deserts do not support a tremendous biomass, so wildlife is much less common than in many other areas. I do not have livestock, and have no desire to shoot coyotes or bobcats at the ranch.

Best picture of a bobcat at the Ranch that I have captured yet. Unusual to catch a confrontation.

I would think the Bobcat would rip that coyote up pretty good.

Just a little wild west dinner party gone wrong, but seriously I think this pair is stuffed.

..that is, I wrote up the reply before seeing your now obvious explanation, that it was simply a display, as revealed by the carpeted base beneath them.

Made my trigger finger twitch. I drop coyotes on sight. Bobcats are ok as long as they don’t go after livestock.

...then again, we’ve had cats and dogs in the same house before, and they occasionally went at each other like that. As did me and my ex-wife. :)

Dinner party? Nah, that is a pic of my daughter and I discussing the legitimate role of government in our lives and the 2016 election.

I avoid (greatly limit) political talks with my daughter.
I want to keep access to the grandkids, and heated disagreements are not great for a mother with young kids.
Works out pretty well.
