3 bobcats at 10-15 feet!
« on: December 06, 2019, 04:44:39 PM »
So every other week I drive Sherman pass to get my son and on the way back tonight a bobcat ran across in front of us! So I jumped out and ran around to the right side and looked over the guard rail and the little kitty is maybe 8-10 feet from me crouched in the grass. I started lip squeaking and he perked up and took a step towards me! But then I noticed a bigger bobcat step into the light from between 2 trees just to his left, and then a smaller one jumped onto a stump at like 15 feet. So I opened the door and grabbed the phone from my kid(he was playing games on it) and instantly he quite loudly let out a HEY! And the cats started taking off down the hill. I got 2 on camera but not nearly as cool of a video as it could have been. They were like a mile/ mile and a half from where I trapped my first one awhile ago so it seems I have a new area to trap! Try to find the daddy!
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short.

Amen

I’ve seen several cats on that drive. 

Sounds like you need to do some kid/phone training.
