r/bobcats

It was so nasty I gave up lol sorry yall

PLEASE HELP ME ID WTF ANIMAL IS THIS?!? 🤯😳

Not only are its movements/ behavior bizarre, but also its combination of physical size and shape not matching any animal i can think of?!

It looks like a cat of some kind, but it was too big and muscular to be a house cat.

It did seem to have a snubby tail similar to a bobcat, but didn’t see any other noticeable bobcat features.

(But there are also some frames where it seems like the tail may be longer than it appears but is too skinny at the tip for the camera to capture in the low light. OR these frames could be an illusion of the stubby tail and chainlink fencing blending for a frame giving a fleeting appearance of the long skinny tail tip?)

It’s obviously far enough away and dark enough that a lot of the details needed to identify are hard to see.

I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE ANY HELP IN NARROWING DOWN THIS ANIMAL! 🙏

This cat came by last night. Any id on this one?
