    Default Bobcat Pic and big does

    These pictures were taken on a biomaxx plot. I have a couple of questions about the pics. first are these does pregnant and what do you think caused the wound on her side. Also how tall and much do you think the bobcat weighs. thanks for any help

    That doe does look pregnant. The fact that last years fawn is still hanging around, says that she hasn't fawned yet.
    I have no idea how big the Bobcat is, but some great pics

    those are some really good pics...bob cats dont get too big..i imagine about 20 pounds would be a good sized bobcat...that doe does indeed look pregnant...that wound could be from a number of things though...i doubt from a bobcat though..looks a little big to be a scratch or something..she could have grazed some barbed wire...

    Nice pics. Comparing the doe to the cat, would guess that cat is maybe around 25 lbs. The doe looks pregnant to me, the fawn(yearling) has a sagging belly looking like she will soon be dropping too. The slash could have come from a barb wire fence or anything, but would seriously doubt it came from an attacking cat. You never know. Have found hair and hide on fences around here on several occasions and then caught deer with the camera that had pretty good cuts.

    Easy way to figure the height of the cat is to look at it next to the corn. That corn to me looks like it is not quite a foot tall(look at it next to the does back leg), the cat is at best one and a half times the height of the corn. It is maybe 16-18 inches tall at the most. Would be really doubtful that cat would go over 25 lbs.

    cool pics. I would have to agree with everyone else both does still looks pregnant. Scratch could have come from alot of things.

    Nice pics. I would say both does are pregnant. Looks like a nice sized cat also.
