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 love you... I really do...

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.

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 love you... I really do...
