Bobcat

 Well,,I got one we never figured out how it got in,,,,,,,,,

  Back then after the big flood in the mid 1950's ,,,us kids could hear some rustling up in the attic every night,,,sure was spooky and caused some runaways,,,,, Well Mom finally told Dad he was gonna have to do something. He cut a hole in the ceiling in the kitchen and we waited,,we heard it walk up to the hole but would not come out,,next night same thing but 3rd night it finally showed its head and it was a BIG racoon and Dad put it away with the .22,,, That sob howled and spit and howled til it died, scared the chit out of all of us too,,!! Never did figure out how in the heck it got in there,,,

We have big cats around here and just down the road mile and a half they caught a mountain lion taking goats, chickens and family dog. Unfortunately, they did not know what it was until cameras put up just before it took the dog so goat on lease pasture I use is worth the smell in my opinion. Maybe cat will take the goat before any calves.

They have reportedly been finding bones up in trees in this area for years but only other sighting is big cat taking a dump in the middle of the Glen Rose high school football field in the middle of the night, caught on surveillance camera about five years ago.

Seen one in WY years ago when headed down rig road going to work near LaBarge, best viewed with binoculars in my opinion, or thru a good scope . . . .
