Congrats Duck Thats great.   Did you call him in, or spotlight him or track him down.  Always good to get a kitty.

Good for you!

Although a picture is worth a thousand words,  we still got to have the story that goes with the picture.

That is a very nice cat!  How much did he weigh?  I would also like to hear the story!

Some advice I'd give you is get him into the freezer or to your Taxidermist ASAP!  Bobcats, Fox, and all small mammals have a tendancy to slip pretty fast.  Faster than Big Game animals!  Why?   Because the hair roots on small mammals are a lot smaller than that of large game.  Bacteria can eat through the hair roots a lot faster.

That is why I wish the F&G would let taxidermists seal hides that came into the shop!

I didnt realize you could spotlight cats. Definately a easier way to hunt the little kitties.  I say go with the full mount.
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

So what are the rules regarding a bobcat? F&G need to see all of them?
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!
