Title: Bobcat
Post by: Mo on October 17, 2009, 07:45:38 PM: I was sitting in my cabin last Sunday eating breakfast when this dude strolled by.

He wasn't in any hurry which gave me a chance to grab the MO-T camera (manually operated trail cam ;) :P). The flash on the glass washed out the color. He was good sized, about equal to a large Labrador.

Post by: Mo on October 19, 2009, 10:14:02 AM: My lab is about 70 pounds and I would have guessed he was in that ballpark. I'm not so sure now, from what I read they rarely reach 40 pounds. I'm pretty sure that cat would have an easy time whooping my dog though. I did get a good look at him as he took his time sniffing and looking inside of 50 feet from the window. My wife and I both estimated he was about the size of our yellow Labrador.
