Are these the same cats

[Barehunter]

These cats are in the same are do you guys think it is the same cat.

[Kingofthemountain83]

Not only do I think it's the same cat, I think it's the same picture of the same cat!

Yup ,looks that way.

[Kingofthemountain83]

I'd also say that cat is a tom in 140#+ category...

Your last two pics look like same cat. Kinda dark tail.
First things I look at are tail and face.
Looks like 12/12 was the day to be there....lol

Season still open there or what.

The 8/17 pic looks like the chest doesn't come down the leg as much as the top pic imo... But could be due to angle of pic... The 12/25 pic looks like the chest comes down the leg about the same on the first pic... They look like they all have the same tail, the black shade all up the back from tip... The deep chest screams male in all photos... I'm willing to bet it's the same cat... How far apart are the cams? A huge female cat is 130#... And her chest will be more even with her stomach... All these cats look a little north of that to me... I've only put my hands on 3 though...

I have several pictures of these cats but the first and third where taken on the same day a couple miles apart.

All these pictures are within 5 miles of each other.

I was just gonna say ,the first pic ,cat is broadside.
Hard to see face ,backside of tail.

The night photo shows the dark tail. Not much face detail.
That dark tail pops out in the last two pics.

what about these

I got a day time pic of a big cougar muzzy elk season 7 1/2 miles from camp as the crow flies... Got a 2am pic that night 25 yards in front of camp of a coug running... So blurry but betting it was the same cat... They can have a huge home range...

I know lions have a huge range.But im getting around two lion pictures a week.I dont save them unless there good clear pictures.

Grab a predator call and a lawn-chair and a rifle

Exciting when they come in for you

Those last pics I can't tell anything to compare characteristics... Amazing how they see the infared...

Half my cameras are on video mode they will look at camera and just walk on.

They don't seem cam shy from my pics either... I don't think they're afraid of much... Just extremely smart... I shot one and my dad shot one that I called in with a Lohman bleat... Called in several more but no shot...

Thanks for posting,kinda fun looking at trail cams pics and guessing.
Only way to be 100 percent is to have both cats in the same pic.
Learned the face trick on different bucks with the same antlers,to look for face markings or throat patch.
Some cats will have like up to 6in of black on tail tip.other barely have a black tip.
Ya they roam a lot ,5mile is like nothing for the same cat to be on both cams.

Still fun trying to guess,👍👍👍

The 2nd pic and most recent pic you posted are of a adolescent cat ( banding on the legs ) First pic looks to be an adult cat. Could be mom, and her young one (s) still hanging around

I think at least 2 different cats on your cams

This is my hobbie I set out last spring to get bobcat pictures as many as i could. I walked alot on old roads and researched on onx set cameras
and I check them a coulple times a week.I was suprised when I got the first lion picture. Many deer, elk and coyote pictures to find the cats. Now I keep moving cameras around to find travel ways now that breeding season is kicking off it should be fun. Sure is fun to guess where I will get the next pictures.

I noticed The black band on a video I have it was very close and walking around smelling bobcat lure I put out.
So the black band means young lion?

Yes. Leg banding is mostly faded at a year. Adolescent cats will hang with mom for about a year and a half.

These 3 were following mom. Notice the banding especially on the last cat In this video

todays pic

[Kingofthemountain83]

That's a big kitty!

[Barehunter]

I think this is the same lion as first picture. Big old shoulders on him.

[Kingofthemountain83]

I would agree... From what I understand big tom's won't tolerate other males in their territory and will kill them if given the chance... I'd be surprised to see another male cat around there that isn't with it's mother...

[furbearer365]

They all take a bullet the same way.....

[Barehunter]

 Todays camera check. Kitten I think black stripe on leg.

Im working on it. I called two days ago close to where this picture was taken.

[Kingofthemountain83]
