I know bobcats have been around since the beginning of the state, but there sightings, even while on a rise, are rare. Video of these elusive creatures is still rare. Two of my team mates caught this one on camera leaving a turkey hunt. The size of it seems fairly large when put against the size stats other websites give. I'd bet this would go over 30lbs.

NICE VID Joe!! Yea that would be a biggun!! Average weight for them is around 20 lbs. but with it being winter-ish in the video, i imagine he's a little stocked up for the cold.

They are extremely rare around here, the last time my dad saw one was 30 years ago.

I seen one years ago in Parke County and haven't seen another in the wild since. Anthony that video was in April after a turkey hunt. They didn't even tell me they had it, just caught it as i was playing back tapes.

It seems like every year I see them when im turkey hunting. They usualy come investigating the call. I've never shot one, but I wold shoot one this year considering the low turkey populations. Maybe shooting a few might help out our turkey numbers.
