Bobcats normally shy away from people.

That's what they say. My experience is otherwise. The bobcats around here don't seem to take much notice of people one way or the other. However, they don't usually attack people, though, so you may be correct about it being rabid.

I’ve seen similar behavior with foxes, they hunt mice in our soybean fields and if you are still they will get quite close. There was also a bobcat that would eat the cat food my sister had put out for her cats, it also didn’t seem too concerned about people.
