Bobcat in northern Mendocino [Video by Cathy’s Critter Cam]
Although a bobcat sighting adds a thrill to most people’s day, they aren’t rare or endangered in northern California. Until a few years ago hunters could trap them. And until last year, they could be shot. But on January 1, 2020, hunting of the small feline carnivores ended in this state.
Cathy in northern Mendocino sent the video of the two bobcats caught on her Critter Cam recently. And, we’re wondering if any of you have been lucky enough to capture any photos.
Still one of our favorite photos is this one shared with us last summer by local wildlife photographer, Ann Constantino. Can you top hers?

Hello kitty

Video of leaping bobcat … sorry I’m not successful moving this video from my photo album to this site. Requesting the public’s help that has successfully moved video to this site. Thank you and well wishes to you.
Oct 2018, Bobcat on our deck investigating the chill spot of our last Guinea Foul….the Guinea ultimately met it’s maker about a months after this photo was taken.
We caught two Mountain Lion on our camera’s in Maple Creek. One was a bit emaciated, which was worrisome, and the other was fat and happy. I’ll upload pics later today when I get back home.
So gorgeous and a great photo!

Thank you. This is exactly what I thought when I saw the headline.
They’re asking for bobcats, not cougars!
While I’m originally from Humboldt, I took this bobcat photo in Montana de Oro on the Central Coast.
He looked annoyed that I was on his trail, so he sat down for several minutes while I snapped photos. Finally, he moved off the trail, and I passed by, and then he got back on the trail and casually sauntered up the hill! It was a couple days before Christmas 2009, and I considered the encounter my early Christmas present.
Beautiful.
From December
I got video of a Bob Cat I can share or just send a screen shot
It’s just for our enjoyment–not for any particular use. I appreciate you checking in.

This one crossed the road in front of me, on the McCloud arm of Lake Shasta.
Another look.
