  • We had an attack in broad daylight here on the homestead. Our favorite turkey is now missing and she did not survive this one. I found the proof I needed to exactly what killed her. Lets go and try to find the bobcat that did this.

      As having spent about 80% of my 45 years of life in the woods, hunting, fishing, camping, etc... also having spent time with cats (a pet half bobcat half domestic cat) cats in general do not leave claw marks when they step. Unless it's having to get traction in a very slippery spot they retract their claws. Dogs and coyotes can't retract their claws so they will always leave the claws mark.
      Hope that helps.

    Dutch, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE for keeping YOUR FAMILY and property safe! If that means eliminating pit bulls or wild life that’s on your property, then you do what you have to do! Anyone that complains because of you protecting your family needs an attitude adjustment. IF the owner(s) cared about those pits, they would NOT be running loose on your property!

      That is not a bobcat people! That is a Manx cat! Look up Manx cats and you will see ones that look just like the one Dutch filmed. That cat was too small and it isn't afraid of humans. That is someone's pet just visiting them. I've had a bunch of Manx cats over the years and have one right now named Mr. Gray.

    My Granddaughter was 5 years old and was playing in the yard with her mothers friends daughter. They had a pit bull that was suppose to be friendly. The kids were running around playing and he attacked my Grandaughter, took a chunk out of her arm and ate it and bit her in the stomach. DSS got involved,police and animal control. The dog was taken away and put to sleep and my Granddaughter ended up scared for life . She’s 16 now!

There are about 8 on the five miles of trail I walk and when the birds get I look around because the bobcats are near. Birds will also do that for hawks and owls. They will chase owls away. It’s not like your average morning bird singing.

    Definitely a Bobcat. They are smaller in the south, than the north. I saw one only once on our 40 acres in Oregon, 2x in one day, 11 am at one end of the property travelling southward, never thought I'd see it again and then again about 3:30 (November so it was dark early) at the other end of the property, going easterly. Also, they will watch you after they have killed prey.

    To be honest. Any dog is dangerous typically it would be depending on how they were brought up.... dad said if they're abandoned dogs out in the woods and they're killing your animals drop them

    My sister had a pit bull it was raised with her girls. The dog loved them, but then one day out out the blue it attacked her in the face. She had several surgeries to get back to looking normal.

    i think it don't matter if its a cat dog or whatever if its killing your livestock it could very well come after your family or pets. so you have a right to protect your home no matter what animal it is and no matter what people say, this is your home and these people that dislikes it has never had to live in this situation, if they did they would get it. do what you have to do Dutch.

    Hi Dutch, so sorry for your loss, you showed pictures of pit bull on your property and was saying how dangerous they can be, well l live in the U K and in the last 2 years there have been 10 fatal attacks by American XL Pit bulls and several more life changing non fatal attacks, please be careful don’t become another statistic. Sending love and hugs to you all 🇬🇧💕💕💕

    At 16:10 a cat print won't show the claws but a dog always does. The cat you saw earlier was quite possible a big mangxes house cat. A bobcat would never let you get that close to it.

    Hi, Dutch. You're right about pits, but any dog bred in a puppy mill situation can become snappy Pits became popular for awhile and so many began irresponsible breeding. Temperament seems to be the first thing to they screw up. My family raised AKC Dobermans but we knew of puppy mill Dobes bred by ignorant folks who were biters., don't care if they belong to someone or not. I have ZERO tolerance for roaming dogs. I have no idea if they belong to anyone so I protect my chickens and my cat As far as the tracks, if there are nail prints on the end of the toes, it's a canine. If none at all, it may be a feline. Looks like a domestic dog track to me only because I think I see toenail impressions on the track you showed and the toenail shape is not rounded like a cat, but I could be wrong. We had mountain lion tracks by one of our chicken pens years ago-my late best friend was Cherokee and routinely had them crossing through her property in Oregon and she confirmed the tracks. Afterward, a neighbor asked if we'd seen the mountain lion. The cat you saw did look like a bobcat. The taking of the turkey without any warning could definitely be a bobcat. They are the worst for silent predation and they can take a chicken so quickly, there will sometimes be no feathers. My Cherokee friend lost a 12 lb rooster I gave her, right off her front porch as the day was winding down-he was 2nd in command after the alpha rooster so he always brought up the rear of the flock as they were going to roost He had bright red feathers and she never found a one of them dropped, but a bobcat was sighted by a neighbor of hers after the incident~Cynthia

      @angelpony1657 Рік тому

      Lynx have pointy ears and the hair tufts, but they’re much more indigenous to Northern Regions-esp. Canada...
      Bobcats have more rounded ears and little to no obvious hair tufts in them.

    I don't know much about bobcats but don't they at times go up into trees and lay out on limbs? If so you also need to look up as well. Please be careful and keep the girls and Brandi close as well. No one should go out alone. Cat, dog, coyote whatever take it out before it harms anyone or anything again.
