My son in law trapped this male bobcat in his back yard last night. He lives in The Colony just north of Dallas, off North Colony st. The cat is 33" long and will be stuffed. It was coming over his wood fence and pulling baby rabbits out of their cage through a narrow gap.

Dump it in Austin and let it eat some cats.

We started noticing "murder scenes" in our back yard in our typical suburban neighborhood. Looked like literal explosions of bird feathers, with nothing more substantial than the feathers remaining. Had never seen anything like it. Then one evening I found a bobcat about the same size as in your picture in the backyard, laying in one of the raised garden beds. I picked up a 4 ft. 2x4 thinking I would run it off. It was completely unconcerned with my presence, or my 2x4.
 As I was pondering my next move, it stood up, stretched, and casually jumped to the top of the 8 ft wooden fence, and lay down on the top cross piece of wood. Where it proceeded to stare down at me without a care in the world. I yelled. I threatened. I wacked the fence with the 2x4. It yawned. I retreated to the house for better armament, but it was gone when I returned.

Next time set up your phone to record the encounter and hit one with the 2x4.

I've eaten cougar, (which is among the best game meat I've ever had), but I've never eaten babcat meat.
If you are going to drown that rascal and have him stuffed...you might try some after you skin him. I've heard it's not bad.

Sounds like someone needs a better built rabbit cage. Enjoy your rats this winter.

Charlie 43 Echo is likely the study ID # for this particular bobcat given the location and cross referencing the individual data.

Rats are everywhere. I have seen rats in job sites from the middle of Highland Park to the boonies, to the 30th floor of high rise buildings, and every subdivision in between. Those fuckers get around.

There's a cougar roaming around Kingwood. Came across it while running on the Kingwood trails. Called the police and animal control, nobody seemed to give a fuck. Oh well, hope it doesn't decide to maul anyone.
