RE: Big Cat Picture from Penna.
The second picture is definately a bobcat.The cat in the first picture appears to have a long tail but if you look close,it also appears to be part of the back leg.I immediately thought it was a bobcat because of the white on the back of the ears but it could also be white flowers or weeds.Kind of coincidental that they'd be on the back of both ears though.The cat is also very small with spots on the inside of it's back leg.I call bobcat on both accounts.
This is the third picture of bobcatsI've seen posted where people thought they were mountain lions.I don't believe for one minute that we have any type of a mountain lion population in Pa,regardless of what Slinky has to say.Where would they come from?I suppose a few illegal petscould be released from time to time but the chances of a male and female running in to each other and reproducing is highly unlikely.
