Bobcat Attacks Woman At Her Mailbox

[rdl6989]

I never thought of bobcats as especially hostile animals. The places where I used to go camping in the hills of southern Indiana is full of them.

[West Texas Chuck]

Wow, just wow. I see these things from time to time here in Dallas, we have several around local mountain bike trails. Never heard of any agressions from them.

That sucker comes in my garage and goes for me I’ll hit him with more than a 4x4, that part of the house is full of all sorts of pointy and hammery things to smack an animal with. If I did use a 4x4 it would my truck.

“Bobcat attacked FL woman”

When will people learn to remove their keys when finished back-hoeing with their Bobcats?

I worked near Naples, FL one winter. Just across a fire canal from the Everglades.

A pretty regular thing to see big “kitty” pawprints in the dirt around the jobsite in the morning.

Rattlesnakes, too!

[billorites]

I didn't do it. Nobody saw me do it. You can't prove a thing.

“bit my wife by the mailbox”

Is that next to the coccyx?

[youngidiot]

Sadly, the lady’s head will have to be cut off and mailed in so they can check for rabies. We need to come up with a better way.

Too bad these folks live in FL. I guess they think the police will protect them there. I live in Arkansas and every time I walk my dogs, or walk to the mail box I have my S&W Mod 29 in 44 Mag on my hip. You know; just in case.

Then it attacked her lawn:

Two times in my life I have been attacked by reasonably large vicious dogs. Both times the dog received almost infinitely worse than he gave. I say 'almost infinitely' because in both cases the dog was left alive while I received no injuries once and a minor bite the second time. To this day I think I can beat any dog (I'm sixty) and will maintain that attitude until I fight a dog and lose or become feeble, whichever comes first.

Cats are a whole 'nuther kettle of fish. They don't fight fair and have more weapons than dogs. At least they use more weapons. I don' wanna fight no cats...period...unless the cat weighs less than ten pounds or is really, really sick yet sans rabies.

I hit it with a four-by-four, and then a broom," Rick Arnold said

I wonder if Laz would hit it?

(With or without a four by four)

[hosepipe]

A Bobcat in West Palm Beach.. had to be somebodys pet..
I had a friend in Ft. Lauderdale that had two Bobcats pets..
One of them was huge for a Bobcat.. the male..

[duffus]

Rabis?

[ml/nj]

The woman was attacked at her home on Thursday, and her husband came to the rescue.

Can't be my mother then. My father passed away in 1994.

It came from the neighbor, jumped his fence, came across the road, bit my wife by the mailbox

Is that what they're calling it now? Modern slang, it's just so inventive.

I must be getting old, I just can't keep up with it all, lol.

[Joe Boucher]

A family of four live on my airpark.
Pretty brazen too, a few weeks ago they walked across the runway and one stopped in the middle of it and sat and licked itself for about three minutes without a care in the world.

[Peet]

Same thing happend in Greenfield MA couple years ago. Finally someone caught it under a garbage can (during an attack) and it turned out to be rabid...

[Terry Mross]

The guy said it “bit my wife by the mailbox”. I’ve heard it called a lot of different names but I’ve never heard it called a “mailbox”.

[Vendome]

 

 

This should solve the problem
