don't know but I guess it's in the air, been trying to get a bobcat for awhile and now 2 in less than a week... first was when I was taking down my blind before the snow, then this one today... while it and another bigger one, were sneaking up on the turkeys in front of me. unfortunately, I had a 7mm-08 with ballistic tip ammo both times. switching it out as of tonight....

pretty much being in the right place at the right time honestly, I wasn't even trying to hunt. lately I've been out, but both these times I was taking a blind down, and today checking cameras and stuff and just kinda chilling out watching when in just a few minutes here they were
 
Good. Cats are out of control.
I thought it was just on my farms....

but it really is getting ridiculous. A decade ago, I might see or photograph a bobcat once every other year.

We have killed 3 or 4 every year past 3 years, and I have at least 7 different bobcats on camera this year.

I guess it's the lack of trapping and collapse of fur market?

You got lucky! When I am out without a gun, I see all kinds of animals, including coyotes and cats. It is like they walk upon me. If I carry a camera or gun, ... nothing!
