Default RE: Possible Mt lion track

that track is not bobcat..its a dog or mountain lion, i feel..LABS will make 1 big set of tracks..
I can not or will not say what type of track it is as it is not clear enough. For those that feel a bobcat has a small track think again. Here is a photo of a bobcat that weighs 43 pounds that a friend's son caught trapping here 12-3-2006. It had a real big track for a bobcat and here in Maine the current record for a bobcat is 63 lbs. The average female here is 20 lbs. and the average male is around 27 lbs.




The size of this bobcat's front ankle is the size of an average man's wrist. Granted not all bobcats are this big but as you can see some are. Also I am not trying to discredit anyone here it is just that without that track being clear who would possibly know what kind of animal made that track.
