None actually a friend of mine hunts this property, he shared this picture with me. I did offer to help, but he says him and the other leases hunters want to go after them. Last year they killed 6 on this property.
I’d set traps as it would be pretty easy to trap them I’d imagine.

Yes Sir, was told they can’t raise any stock on this property. Not surprising with the likes of this picture. Now there is supposed to be a mess of aoudads and mule deer here.

Being from indiana I've personally never seen any cats other than bobcats(which we have plenty in my area till they open a season) but that looks to be alarming amount in one picture that's for sure... although few years back handful of the farmers swore they seen a mt. Lion roaming the area but no other sightings since that particular year

I really don’t know much about lions I’ve only ever caught 1. I’d assume this was probably a mother with her babies. I’ve read they will sometimes stay with the mother for a couple years. Course I don’t know if this is factual. From what I understand there is a lot of big cats in this part of west Texas.

What is normally baited with cotton seed?

Deer and or exotics axis auodad mule deer. It’s a high source of protein. Much like the deer pellets folks feed out to aid in antler growth.
