That thing looks like it is between 150-200 pounds, but I am not convinced it is a cat yet.

I tried hard not to believe it. But let us consider what else it could be:

Not a deer. Wright color, wrong tail, low profile.
Note a coyote. Leaps, striding gate, and wrong color.
Maybe a dog? I doubt it, but hard to rule out based on video.
Shark. Naah! We don't have sharks in Indiana.
Definitely not the Easter Bunny.

What do ya think?

Well, nothing else moves like that but a feline. The undulating spine and the way the hind feet push off in the leap is unique. (I bred and showed cats for 15 years, now I'm showing dogs instead - that is clearly a cat of some kind.)

And it's way too big for a house cat -- an animal that small would be completely obscured by the tall grass.
