Ever Seen a Bobcat while hunting?
 

I hunt in Southern Indiana and have heard stories of guys seeing bobcats every now and then, I talked to a conservation officer at a show a couple weeks ago and he said he gets a couple calls every year about bobcats getting hit on the interstate. i would love to get one mounted and put in my trophy room, have any of you ever seen one in the wild?

Nope but one of my shooting friends said he saw 3 about 3/4 the way grown about 3 weeks ago.

Never seen one here in Illinois. I've heard a few reports of people seeing them. Check out this link. This guy has a cougar as a very close neighbor.

I had an adult with 3 little ones come in to the fawn distress call that I was using a couple years ago. Those are the only ones I have ever seen

I've seen a few, even when I was lookin' for 'em:D A lot of guys that do predator calling see them every year. Some places have enough of them to call and kill 3 or 4 in a day/night of hunting. I've only killed a few, but I'm always lookin' too!! I've also had one of my mounted, they do make a great mount:)

I see a few every year hunting. We have quite a few of them around. I trapped 4 of them this winter.

Wow, scary cougar pics!!

I saw a bobcat once while rabbit hunting, pretty cool to see. Disappeared pretty fast too.

Several years ago I was fishing in northern wisconsin. I looked on the shore line and saw a mother bobcat with four young ones. Coming in the opposite direction right at them was a mother duck with her ducklings. The two mothers were both in the lead and as they passed each other they seemed to ignore each other. But the young ones seemed quite curious and it appeared that they wanted to play. The mothers both scolded their young and they procceded on their way. It was quite an experience to witness............dabow

Never seen one, only 2 pelts from what others have killed. Id love to take one but the chances of even seeing one are so slim I wont have a tag if i did so then i couldnt shoot it anyway.
