Another Bobcat Sighting

MAXUM · 02-28-2016, 02:15 PM

While I am an avid hunter and would never go after bobcats, I don't see any problem with having a hunt for them. Only 50 permits are going to be issued and of those only a fraction will be filled. Furthermore bobcats are hunted in ME, VT and MA so all this outrage is really a bit over the top considering these are hunted in all neighboring states.

If you think these guys are just fluffy cute cats, think again they can and do take game as large as deer with relative ease.

Sad to watch but that's mother nature I guess! So what did the guy shoot at the Bobcat or the Deer???

How do you look at that beautiful creature and want to trap and torture it so you can stick it in your living room, or make a hat out of it? I'm an old hunter, not much anymore. If you won't eat it, don't kill it.
