bobcat or mountian lion

[snacky cake]

wtf is everybody getting that all bobcats are little? they aren't all little. they look A LOT bigger than their weight.

I grew up in the country and have seen bobcats. They are generally much smaller than a cougar. We had a cougar as a mascot at our school. The local veterenatian owned her. Anyway, I got to pet her at like every game because I was a cheerleader. She would come out on the court with us even, with the vet watching out for her. She was pretty old and mellow. Anyway, I know what a cougar looks like very well, and that is a cougar. I'm sure of it.

i've killed several bobcats and see them while hunting all the time. correct not as big as a cougar but some of them are bigger than large dogs.

if you see the picture where i circled the side of its head you can see its "side-burns" and also if you look u can see the black stripes behind it's mouth. cougars do not have any kind of black there, usually behind their mouth they are white/gold

I think that looks like a cougar head. bobcats have very short looking necks and are more stubby and tufts on their faces. I've NEVER seen a bobcat as big as what is in that picture. NEVER.

seriously........have u ever seen a bobcat up close.......in real life???? they look a TON bigger than what they weigh, b/c they are so long/lanky. those raccons weigh a max what 10-15lbs and they are solid mass, that cat probably weighs max 35lbs.

the picture i blew up and circled proves it bro, COUGARS DO NOT HAVE BLACK STRIPES BEHIND THEIR MOUTH.

Look at the slope from the forehead down the bridge to the snout, looks like a Puma to me.

that's exactly what I was looking at when I concluded it must be some weird hybrid. Bobcats have much flatter faces, look like an overgrown house cat. The head more resembles a cougar, but not quite.......the slope is inbetween. Maybe it's just an optical illusion from the flash???

That is 10000000% a cougar...and its name is Karen.
