I saw an animal similar to this in northern lower Michigan while deer hunting in November a few years back. It had the fur of a cougar no spots redish tan in color very short bob tail unlike a bobcat or cougar.It's weight was in it's chest built like a rottweiler dog. Much thicker than any bobcat I have ever seen in picture or alive.For hoursI listened toblood curdeling moans andscreams coming from a thickcrick bottomlined with beaver ponds. Then it came prowling out of the crick bottom climbingwindfalls like an acrobat. It was near noonon a sunny dayso there was no lighting issue.I have shotbobcats before andhave one mounted on my wall thiswas not a bobcat. For years I haveresearched this trying to figure out what this was. This picture is as close to what I saw as anything I have found to date. What it was I haven't a clue. Sothere you go we're both nuts yuk itup ya hardons.
