Look at the 2 pictures. Compare them and look at the track inprint without the shell and then look at the one with the shell. See any disturbance in the area between them 2 pictures.

I believe some are seeing what they claim. Is it possible that a escaped captive cat, that has a few skills, is wandering and giving the appearance of more cats? Who knows!
I have heard, not sure if true...that there are occasional bobcats with tails as log as 14 inches. And I have seen pictures of trapped Bobs that were almost a solid orangy colored with nary a pattern in their coat. Perhaps we are seeing some kind of hybrid super bobcat with cougar bloodlines. They say our yotes are part wolf so it could happen...right?

4evr, you say you came upon the track yourself. I asked that specifically because we get so many stories that are second, third, fourth,.... twenty seventh hand accounts of "the facts". You've never given any of us a reason to think you would lie on here that I've seen so my interest just went up a notch or two. It's a shame theprint got destroyed before you could document it. The problem is that we've still not been able to get confirmation even when credible people see or believe they saw something.

I will be going back there this upcoming weekend and I am going to scout the area around the creek and areas where there might be undisturbed tracks. If I find one and can document it, I will try to cover it with a milk crate or something to preserve it. I know it is unlikely I will find more tracks but I will try. Maybe take the video camera.

Depending on the conditions it may compact it very little. As the soil dries there will be more compaction.

His real name is CLIFF CLAVEN. He was wrong anyway. Soil does not become more dense as it dries. It becomes more solid, not more dense. There is less mass density when the moisture content is removed. We learned all this in like 8th Grade. What weighs more BB2....a ton of feathers or a ton of lead?
