Grab a predator call and a lawn-chair and a rifle
If you were closer I’d help ya find out
Exciting when they come in for you

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...
I love you... I really do...

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

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

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...
I love you... I really do...
