BobCat in the Hood

Recommended Posts

... if your 'hood is around Ventana Canyon, Tucson foot-hills...

 

Young adult male, sleek fur, looks wellfed, we squeeked at him alittle, No concern, No worries, he just slowly walked between a couple of homes doing the cat-thing...

 

(was half expecting him to come around the other side of the house with Fluffy the poodle in his mouth...)

I was up on the north side working last week. There were 2 fat and sassy coyotes in a small clearing next to the property I was at. I pulled up a distressed rabbit call on my cell phone. Drove them crazy for a few minutes.

Looking for someones Poodle to eat, no doubt. Urban predators know where the chow line is.

Looking for a poodle for lunch does have its risks. He could find a Rottweiler instead of a poodle.

I would bet the house on a bobcat over any domestic K9.

Very true, but the rotty would remember that encounter.

Makes you think twice letting your 2 year old kids play in the back yard

I have a little pit bull mix that would go after that thing in a heart beat. She may not win, she would give a heck of a fight. Her record with feline invaders in our backyard is pretty impressive. Sweetest dog you ever met unless you are a cat in her yard.

 

I have a rottie that would act tough but take a beating from that kitty. The st Bernard too. They are not tough like the terrier.

I inherited a little dachshund female through marriage that would try and take a piece. She might die trying, but she would probably get a piece.

Those dogs have no fear. Pound for pound they are scrappers for sure. They are just at a size disadvantage compared to bigger dogs. They walk the walk though unlike alot of small dogs that are just talkers.

My lil ann would pry kill it. Not sayin she's mean but a 100lb mastif boxer mix that loves her family? She protects us! Had a coyote at work today and everyone wanted pictures, I wanted to shoot it. That coyote is gonna be social media fame this weekend, 10-15 city guys got pictures of the "wild life" walking on black top. Kinda sad.

You could easily loose the house on that one. Yes, the bobcat can dish out some damage. A bobcat is not going to take a rottie down by grabbing it by the neck in typical cat fashion, the rottie's neck is just to thick and muscular. If it tries it will get the back half of it's own body bit. The rottie can completely destroy any part of the cat it can get it's mouth on. A rottie's bite is powerful enough crush the bones in your arm.
