Alright... This looks like a Mountain Lion

[Renegade Hunter]

Alright guys, my buddy got a picture on a trail camera in Oxford NY. Take a look at it and tell me what you think? I think it looks a hell of a lot like a mountain lion, we both think that's impossible so it may be a bobcat?? This is a legit trail cam picture that he sent to me.

I'll keep an open mind...but son sent me a pic from friends of his...I had the pic checked and it was cat from another state...why they sent it out to friends I do not know..

[Renegade Hunter]

Yes, but this is a no kidding, verified picture. He and a buddy hunt this land every year. They have seen a bobcat up there that's why we aren't sure what it is. The question is not whether the pic was taken in NY, bc it was. The question is, is it a bobcat or mountain lion??

Any chance you could get the original picture uploaded and not a picture of a picture?

Haha, I expected some comments like that, I would be doing the same I'm sure. But I'm dead serious. Taken in Oxford NY lol. Hopefully I can have the original trail cam pic up this afternoon. But for real, it looks like a mountain lion does it not? I don't think there's any way that's a bob cat.

Yea, Oxford NY is located right next to area 51. Good call.

[Renegade Hunter]

But yes, I will have the actual pic from the trail cam up later this afternoon hopefully.

Bobcat with a summer coat. Here is a comparison with a winter bobcat zoomed in from another site.

That might be all it is, I still want to post the original pic
