At the place where I used to ski in Utah a lot, there was a bar/hangout called "Canyon Inn" that got nicknamed "Cougar Inn" because of all the cougars prowling around the place for apres ski.

Back in my single "Male *****" days I thought I was the Predator. More often than I care to admit, I was the prey..... Reflected in my empty billfold then next morning.....

Looks like I'm a little late to the bobcat conversation, but there's one (or more) around our house. The noise those things make is spooky. I would describe it as a scream.

I've seen a mountain lion in PA. I guess that is the same as a puma. Aside from the tail, which is long and curved, it was a light tawny color, almost cream colored. And it had a much lighter build than a bobcat. He was picking his way across an icy crusted field and was nearly dancing to keep from slipping. Quite graceful actually.

We had a string of sightings in the area a few years ago but no one got a picture. The state said they didn't exist but at least a dozen people reported them to the local paper.

So if they don't exist, can you get in trouble for shooting one? Deep thoughts.

A mountain lion with a lighter build than a bobcat?

My kid and I went to the zoo today. There were two bobcats, quite active, playing in the snow. We were no more than an inch from them through the glass. They were MAYBE twice the size of our house cat, probably less than twice the size of our house cat. I'd say the bigger one was no more than 25 pounds. Our big house cat was 17 pounds. He's down to 13 now after diet.
