Bobcat

Lynx rufus

Description:

Trail Cam picture.

Habitat:

Woods

Notes:

I caught this picture on my trail cam. I know it is not a great picture but I was wandering if someone could identify it. Hopefully I will catch another picture of it but this is the first one in over 2 years of having the camera setup. Thanks!

It seems to have the musculature of a cat ? Can't see any tail though and head looks a bit small. Got bobcats there?... yes you do! http://www.tn.gov/twra/bobcat.html

I personally would call this a cat. It's hard to tell if there's a tail or the length of it, but potentially a bobcat? By no means am I certain of this!

Oh cool! I love a good mystery! I don't have a guess as to what it might be but I hope to follow along as others might chime in! :)
