can't see much to really judge, but considering he is well behind the bucket and looking at how he compares to the base of the trees, I waould say it appears to be a pretty large cat. :twocents:

I would guess 140 or bigger. The one in my avatar is a little over a 100lbs and your pic seems like quite a bit bigger kitty.  :twocents: Mark

Based off of information received on the whereabouts of your camera I would say he is probably the same cat I have pictures of. He is a big kitty I would guess 120-140 range. For reference here is a pic I got.

Dave's looks bigger that LTH's to me. It's further away than the bucket, but look 2 dimensionally compared to the bucket. That's a big cat. I'd say 140 is safely conservative.

Look at the elk's head and the cat's head in LTH's pic. Much smaller. Not a juvenile, but not as big.

I agree, looks like two different cats to me......the last cat on the elk kind of looks about 20 pounds lighter to me.
