Nobody is gonna question the date on the picture being 01/04/00?

I saw that

But then I wondered why anyone would lie about that

It is a mountain lion. I have seen up close bobcats and mountain Lions both. I actually stared at a bobcat through a cage at a animal sanctuary. Those things are nasty and pissed off, lol.

bobcats are not nearly as big as what that picture shows.

a large bobcat is about 40lbs (around here - northcentral pa - anyway), but they look to be significantly larger than their actual weight. . .

the coon is probably 10-15 lbs, the cat is gonna be 50 at least. Being that ever getting a cougar on film, even by accident, is extremely rare, I'm gona say it's a BIG Bobcat. If it turns out to be a juvinile cougar, it wouldn't surprise me, but that's my vote, big bobcat.

Y'know there wouldn't even be a question if she had just hesitated a second longer and caught the damn thing's ass in the frame so we could see the tail!

Big_bad, I can't believe she take more than one picture?! Who sees a wild cat about to pounce a raccoon and doesn't take more than one shot?!

Incidentally, I've since looked up the range of the mountain lion. I'm changing my vote to bobcat.

 

[redsamurai]

weird, definitely has the physique of a mountain lion, but the head of a bobcat.....?? wtf?

Hmm, that looks like a lynx to me. Not a bobcat. Lynx are more furry with a lighter sand color, have the distinguished dark black sharply pointed ears and bigger paws than a bobcat. That is a lynx in that pic. Bobcats have a more golden orange fur, and do not have such thick scruffy "maines" like that.




To BBB, that is a raccoon on a log dude. Lol, it's a Mountain Lion broseph.

Cougars/Mt lion (same thing) are much larger(like the size of a retriever), and are a uniform gold or sandy color. You can't see the spotted fur on the sides by the belly that is the trait of a bobcat. Bobcats are about 3x the size of your average house cat. That there is about 8-10 times the size of a house cat.


Bobcats are not near that size. If that was a bobcat, it would be the biggest damn bobcat that ever lived.

The sheer mass in the shoulders and thighs is a dad give away as well. Bobcats are wirey. Not thick like a cougar.

yeah that's what i was thinking, i'm still waiting to hear back from her to see wether or not it got one of the racoons....she said her night cam got it, so i dont know if she had a video camera running all night or if she took the picture, but yeah, i'm going with mountain lion as well

shit...nevermind...I just noticed the big ass cat on the left side of the picture. what the fuck is in the center with the glowing eyes?

it's called a jedicoon. they shoot lasers from their eyes which it apears it's about to do. but i'm sure it was using them as flash lights to see in the dark
