Look at the spotted lower sides and belly, as well as tufted ears with white tips. Definitely bobcat.mountain lion. His tail is hidden by the tree

Gotcha! I'm so used to dealing with suburbanites who keep telling me they saw a mountain lion in their yard.Was totally kidding
Oh tell me about it. Someone posts a photo on "Nextdoor" of a bobcat with a rabbit in its mouth. Obviously a bobcat. Can even see the Bob tail. The urban prisoners around me freak out, "it's a cougar, TWRA has to do something." You point out that it's a bobcat and they bicker and argue. And then they start crying about the "poor bunny."Gotcha! I'm so used to dealing with suburbanites who keep telling me they saw a mountain lion in their yard.
I've even got one neighbor, in Bellevue (west Nashville), telling everyone he saw a bear in his yard. His explanation was, "At first, I thought it was a fox. But then I realized it was a little bigger, so it must be a bear!" Ummm, bit of a size difference between a fox and a bear!
I swear, as TheOnlyBandThatMatters pointed out, people on Nextdoor will believe anything.Sabretooth!!
I still keep up with my old neighborhood in Nashville just for the laughs. These people would not last long in a real emergency. They had a groundhog on there that was a beaver in their minds.I swear, as TheOnlyBandThatMatters pointed out, people on Nextdoor will believe anything.
I've just about lost all respect for my Fellow Man's cognitive abilities after reading their posts.
Every snake is a cottonmouth or rattlesnake. Every spider is a brown recluse. Every house cat or bobcat is a mountain lion. People see what they want to see, not what is really there.I still keep up with my old neighborhood in Nashville just for the laughs. These people would not last long in a real emergency.

I get the same next door as you I guess. I saw the one last week about the cougar killing the fox???? Back in the winter a lady posted about a bobcat near a school and she contacted the school to go on lockdown and telling parents to watch out for there children. Another lady wanted the " community" to buy cat food, tuna, and sardines for the neighborhood fox so the fox didn't have to kill mice, rabbits, squirrels etc or as she said " her wild fur babies " . Folks can really advertise their stupidity on social media.Oh tell me about it. Someone posts a photo on "Nextdoor" of a bobcat with a rabbit in its mouth. Obviously a bobcat.

I'm tempted to download this pic, post it, and say it's a Knothead Wampuss Cat. See what they say.
I like the people who get angry about coyotes threatening their "fur babies" and want TWRA to trap them (humanely of course) and relocate them "out in the country."I get the same next door as you I guess.
