Black bobcat

[seasley]

Anybody ever seen one of these or heard of one?

 

[LONEHOWL]

Fluffy? Is that you?

 

[wolftrapper]

Cool, never heard of that! Heck, I've never even killed a normal bobcat! Just never lived where they are around.

I have heard of and seen pictures of a couple but they are much more rare than a black coyote.

Yes, there have been black bobcats documented in the past. Unlike black mountain lions/cougars/panthers. A black bobcat is obviously a rare thing but not completely unknown. That's a beautiful animal, a good size one too!

I've seen black coyotes and my father shot a black fox but I've never seen a black bobcat!! Thats cool

Never heard of one, but congrats on a great looking ( future full body mount ).

 

[MasterBlaster]

That's awesome way cool!
Did you shoot it or snare it?
Either way that's sweet.

That is an unusual cat and the first black one I have ever seen. Nice trophy there.

congratulations and thanks for sharing!

I've never heard of a black bob cat, it's certainly a rare beauty.

 

[Cranesville Hunter]

Very rare. Awesome!

Can't see the eyes, but that looks like a "melanic" cat. It's a genetic defect that super pigments the cells with melanin, the opposite of cells containing no melanin (albino).

I always wanted to shoot a melanic deer. There is a small concentration in Texas supposedly.

Holy cow how awesome! What a beautiful animal. Congrats on a great trophy.

Ive never heard of a black bobcat. I heard numerous stories of black panthers around here, but nobody can show me a picture of one. I believe a lot of the panther sightings are otters crossing land.

Man that is a trophy of a life time. Thanks for posting.

That is awesome. I shot a black fox a while back but that is amazing.
