Sorry, wrong thread.
Only once I had a glimpse of just the back end of a bobcat as it spooked in front of me in Colorado...
I’ve seen plenty of tracks, and heard them, but never saw one while hunting. I’ve seen Fischer, fox, coyote, bear, etc,, but never a bobcat while hunting. Nor a lynx
“...dink bucks...”
Ain’t no such thing...You can’t eat antlers...
If it’s a legal deer, you put it in the freezer....
I read through the article several times, and saw no mention of where these pictures were taken, other than an implicit indication that it was somewhere in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
So I guess I’ll have to avoid the whole state, which I normally am able to do with little trouble.
I’ve spotted bobcats twice in the hills and mountains around the San Francisco Bay. Both were short glimpse, but saw the full cat. My wife once spotted a mountain lion on a trail and fortunately he took off in the other direction.
I still don’t know what a scent dripper looks like, but by the way the term is being used, I’m guessing it is some kind of lure meant to attract animals being hunted.
I’ve heard of Honeydrippers, but we’re not talking about
Robert Plant.
Sorry, wrong thread.
I saw a red fox this morning in a Charleston, SC subdivision.
I saw a bobcat one time - he was in the back yard of this house. One of our cats had gotten outside and I was anxious about her because she was sick. I was looking out the window toward the back (the property is about 3 acres and heavily treed) and saw what I thought was our cat tiptoeing in a sort of gingerly, slow way through the shadows under some pines. Then I realized the cat was WAY bigger than our cat and its face had a ruff of fur around it. I’m pretty sure it was a bobcat, though it could’ve been a small mountain lion. (Our cat was subsequently found on the side porch and she was very eager to get into the house, so she was likely reacting to the other one’s presence.)
Girlfriend says there’s a bobcat that comes through her property regularly. I didn’t know they were rarely spotted. Saw a mangy one a couple of years ago, didn’t look like much of a threat.
