I was able to take a couple of pictures of this bobcat before he went over the hill. He was between tower junction and mammoth in yellowstone.

Hey - I saw this 'cat on the yellowstone.net forum!


"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

Very nice shot ! I have a DVD set on Marty Stouffer and his wild life adventures and just last night saw one on the Bobcat and it had a Linx in the show fighting with the BC . I thought Linx (external link) were smaller but wrong , they are bigger than a BC .

Really well done. I'm sure a lot more bobcats see us than we are ever aware of. Thanks for sharing.

chance of a life time, we have them here but have never seen one in the wild, seen tracks but they are a night hunter and very aware of movement, and sound
