Never know why someone would shoot one of these pretty kitties.
I look at this as a once in lifetime type deal, if I see one tomorrow it'll walk. I have caught glimpses of them but never had a shot. This time I did and this animal will be forever immortalized hanging on my wall.
They are pretty animals but they do their fair share of damage to the grouse population and certainly are capable of taking down a fawn. Heck there isn't even a bag limit on bobcats so they clearly aren't endangered animals, just because we don't see many doesn't mean there aren't more then enough out there.
Got the hide sealed by the wildlife biologist and dropped it off at the taxi. He says the exit wound won't be a problem so hopefully I'll have a bobcat full mount next Summer. Once I get it back I'll post up an update.
