Great footage! Clear, with no music to ruin it.
What a Beautiful piece of property to have a home on, where wildlife run freely. Thanks for sharing this video.
Yea, when your dogs start raining sand at 2AM and Black Bears on your deck. I live in Henderson County.
@@GeoHvl Worth it. I'd take black bears and dogs over other people any day.
@@GeoHvl what is raining sand
@@walterhartwellwhite2162 I thinking he meant "raising" sand.
Bobcats are beautiful creatures!
Beautiful creatures. I love their intensity and how they freeze frame.
Beautiful animal. Let's just hope it can live its life out in peace.
And very intelligent and smart.
Why would it live out its life in peace? It would die.
Very few wild animals die a peaceful death....
Ospreys often eat their prey alive
Unless they try something when I’m hiking they’ll be fine. Every outdoorsman should be licensed to carry or have a awesome knife for protection
That beautiful face at the 04:59 minute mark! Thank you for putting this together and sharing.
Some of the best footage I have seen.
This video footage of bobcats being natural is excellent! Dramatic video capture...wow.
Such a good hunter, never ceases to amaze me how they never go hungry
Cats are the fiercest predators on the planet. Beautiful awesome animals.
There movements are comparable to domestic cats hunting, just beautiful !
Better than National Geographic.
Agreed
Time after time: Bobcat disappears into the forest, a few squeals are heard, Bobcat reappears with breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're so beautiful.
Zoology teacher once told me bobcat are pound for pound some of the best hunters in the world. This video seems to affirm this.
All cats are great hunters. Even domesticated cats.
If domestic cats were big they'd be pretty much a leopard
Wow! Your backyard is full of wildlife!
It's a home in the woods rather than living in a concrete jungle.
Envy you, bro!😊
Such a lovely place with such gorgeous bob cats!!! I live in NC and, love all of the wildlife around my house!!! Wonderful video!!!!
Same here! we are in Western NC in the mountains and see everything in our yard
These cats are doing their job perfectly as a great balancer in nature.
Thanks for a great video of the fine nature show behind your home. I've had cats for 30 years, and it's funny how similar my cat acts when "stalking" a toy; she's so serious about it.
This Bobcat keeps many rodents in Check, thanks for letting him do his thing at your place.👍😸👍
💗 That beautiful face is too precious. Love this bobcat!
Multiple cats
Beautiful cat! Great camera setup!
You live in a beautiful environment. I love this..
Great footage!
Wonderful footage. Beautiful animal. Such clarity!
Amazing footage. What a beautiful animal. Thanks for sharing.
Love how you combined the cameras. Thank you.
Fabulous photography of a beautiful animal! 💕
Gorgeous scenery there in the Blue Ridge Mountains, and breathtaking. Love
to watch those Bobcats move, and capture their prey with stealth and precision.
They are natures natural predators. Love to watch them. Great camera too.
Superbly, beautiful!! Nature is eye opening. A cycle of life and contunuation for one species !!
Beautifully camouflaged, and its awesome how its head is completely steady even as it movesover uneven ground, like those tanks that are always aimedat the target whatever position they are in. You can sense just how steep the land is by the way the cat leans so much. The original stealth fighter.....
Great footage... 👍😻
Such a Beautiful little/big cat, is the Bobcat. Awesome footage. Thank you.
Wow, boy howdy that bobcat is a squirrel killer, he even took the white squirrel, thank you for posting
I think that was a big white Rat!
So cool...Slayer of squirrels!
3:40 He must be an excellent hunter, squirrels aren't easy prey.
My cat catches Chipmunks and grey squirrels all the time , brings them in my house alive and lets them go at my feet, sometimes they run up my leg....My cat is feral , I'm the only one it lets in his world , People drop them off on the country road I live on.....People suk
That or the squirrels are not too bright
Very easy prey if you have a .410😂
Lane That's surprising to me. I've always had cats and some of them were excellent at catching mice, birds, fish and even lizards, but a squirrel was never delivered on the porch.
@@Hallands. I have a farrell cat , not your typical house cat.....It survives with Bobcats , Cougars , Red Fox , mink , otters and Eagles trying to have it for dinner. The country is rough for pets. Since writing my previous comment , I've lost to Mallards and 3 chickens to predators .....It is very heartbreaking at times...I only feed my cat before dark, so that he comes inside , to not get eaten....Hes like my little boy , who tries to impress me every chance he gets. I almost hit a cougar a week ago , and another stood 10 ft. from my truck , and I hissed at the young (dumb) cougar. It showed its teeth and squared up on me. I rolled my window up and went on my way....That coug will learn not to test a human. Cuz people SUK.
I love when you know your Robertcats so well you can call them Bobcats,
Funny!
Lmfao
I'm amazed at at well house cats hunt but this video shows that Bobcats are even better.
Fascinating! Such skilled hunters.
Big and little cats are the best...amazing beautiful! And they knows how to live!
Cheers from California! We had the privilege of watching a bobcat take a squirrel in our front yard this past year.
Amazing detail and clarity on these. Looks better than the pictures I’ve gotten at the zoo of the bobcats with my DSLR! We have them around our farm but I’ve only seen one once because they were in the open. In the woods they are extremely well camouflaged.
look at all these little bobcats! adorable!
Thank you for this amazing footage. So pleased to see quite a few catches. Sometimes on trail-cam footage, I start to feel sorry for these beautiful creatures sniffing around with no catches.
Beautiful bobcats and backyard. 😻
I live in Etowah, and enjoy your videos. We live in the best place on earth WNC!
What a beautiful cat !
This makes me think how often are we getting recorded without knowing
It’s basically every second you spend outside of your house. No joke
I'll be paranoid to pee in the woods now
Lots of happy hunting for this bobcat.
Thank you for sharing this......
Awesome, natural behavior captured on video....
You are so blessed to live where ever you are! I myself would call your place heaven, I would have no problem with the maintenance! Your trail cam’s take such clear well focused videos that it is if I was right there watching. Thank you so much for sharing a part of your life and the love of animals☺️🤗
Thanks, Hendersonville, NC - in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
@@WildlifeBehindOurHome Very nice videos. What trail camera are you using??
@@MackinNC1 I use the “no glow” Browning Spec Ops camera series and edit with VideoPad Editing Program for sharpening the video, etc. These cameras detect animals by a simultaneous combination of body heat and motion. Detection is up to 60 or 70 feet away depending on the placement of your camera, the size of the animal and the direction of the animal’s travel.
Awesome clips! Thanks for sharing.
Incredible animals and excellent hunters
I havent been to henderson since i was a boy like 8-9, my family use to drive up there from TN every year to see Grandparents during the holidays in Thomasville NC...miss those days you can pull over and drink the spring water flowing from the underground streams....
WOW!! That is a big Azz bob cat i had no ideal they could get that big, beautiful he or she is,, gorgeous video,
Rufus has been busy in his retirement. Beautiful footage, love the trails, hillside rockage and rhododendron. Need MOAR< MOAR< MOAR. NC native. South Mountains St park is the next best to you're little kingdom.
one of the best footage I have seen in a long time
Great footage. I also live in Hendersonville. I'm 65 and I've only seen 3 in my life in this general area - and I used to spend a lot of time in the remote woods.
Robert Vines your probably lucky to see three they’re probably very nocturnal.
And sneaky. I have experienced 4 sightings this year. There is a young one hanging around here a lot, so the odds of a day sighting increased. We actually ran into each other on the trail and he just followed me at about 50 feet distance, as I checked a couple of cams. I have seen him on my water hole cam looking down on me in my garden.
I was looking for a blood trail during bow season and I heard something grab a squirrel right as it was getting to the end of shooting light knew instantly it was a bob cat. I have only seen 2 in my life in person ran up on one on a 3 wheeler when I was a kid came around the corner there he was just for a second and vanished into the woods. I saw one creeping around a corn field at dusk driving around and thought that's a weird looking coyote and stopped to look for a minute and sure enough there was number 2. They are such cool and stealthy animals I'm glad I've gotten to see some in person. Even if it was just for a second or 2.
they're very private animals, like lynxes. You're very lucky you got to see them twice. I would feel honored to see one someday
Outstanding work, it was like being alongside this wonderful animal. I love the tail twitching, great job, many thanks.
What an absolutely beautiful animal .of course it doesn’t look like it’s pure bobcat looks like he’s got domestic kitty cat
@@sidjckc7664 unproven, they said the same about wolves and coyotes, and there are some hybrids in the new England area.
@@sidjckc7664 Although such a hybrid hasn't been 100% proven as of yet, i wouldn't say the two cat species can't hybridise, genus (Lynx) is closely related to genus (Felis). The domestic cat breeds (Felis catus) known as American bobtail, Pixibob, Desert lynx, Highlander lynx etc despite there names are NOT the result of a Lynx species/domestic hybrid. However based on the the fact that the domestic cat breeds (Felis catus) known as Bengal cat and Savannah cat was created by hybridisation between Domestic cat (Felis catus) X Asian spotted cat (Prionailurus begalensis) = Bengal cat, and the Domestic cat (Felis catus) X African serval (Leptailurus serval) = Savannah cat exist never say never.
I live here as well and see bobcats from time to time. Occasionally mountain lions and even a charcoal black one recently.
Spectacular video thank you for sharing with the world 👊🏽 Victoria,tx
Awesome creatures. Their adaptability amazes me.
What a very cool video. We have a couple of resident bobcats captured on our cameras but nothing like your footage. Good stuff!
that cat is a master at stalking its prey
You our so lucky to have such wildlife, in the UK the countryside has been made sterile from the landowners, thanks for sharing.
Wow - Great placement of your camera! Many thx! Blessings to all
Excellent camera positioning. Multiple cams on the trails are superb!
What a beautiful gift from above, !!!thanks God!!!
beautiful footage! enjoyed so much! Its rare to catch that much of the bobcat on film ........nice job!
Killing machine.. camera angles were on point💪💪💪👍👍👍
So cute the cat is!
Thank you. I’m enjoying your channel.
Bobcat is making a nice living behind your house.
Fascinating to watch. Thank you!
Oh yeah, the old watering hole trick. Great footage, thanks for showing.
Great video! I love bobcats, they're amazing animals.
From what I've seen, the catch rate is off the charts.
awesome..great quality//love cats and dogs.....great video...keep it up.....just goes to show how there are so many good people who love animals
Oh my gosh! How amazing 😻 they’re such beautiful creatures! It’s so crazy how much they look like a regular house cat. We live in Hendersonville too but over off Dana rd. We’ve got a huge pack of coyotes across the road in the apple orchard they go crazy howling every night lol love your videos!
I live about 5 min. from you. I love the mountains. At BRCC there's white squirrels. Brevard has a lot of them. We have coyotes here too.
We have property on the southwest side of Hendersonville. My brother lived there for a while and his domestic cat became friends with one of the bobcats. I never got to see (presumably) him but they are exquisite! Of all of the wild cats, our random bred domestic cats (and some of the others) do most resemble them. I imagine their genetics are closely related, similar to wolves and huskies, where periodic interbreeding occurs. Interestingly, I suppose it's the opposite of what's occurring the the coyote population where genetics are being "diluted" by domestic dogs but certainly there are instances where the wild genes enter into the domesticated lines too. Fortunately, my brother's cat was spayed so we didn't have any hybrid babies!
Haven't seen or heard coyotes there yet but have them on the northwestern side of Columbia coming in from the northwest, behind the skunks and raccoons. They're meeting the human expansion pretty much on top of us. In over 50 years, we've only spotted one white squirrel in the mountains but they don't seem to survive well outside of their somewhat protected zones and we are pretty far removed, though not as far as it used to be there either.
We've also seen or smelled evidence of a black bear for many years now but only caught sight of one last October when she ambled up onto the porch while we were there. We had a tree across the driveway and hiked in so I guess she didn't know "the visitors" were there! I'm gonna say that their hearing or sense of smell isn't terribly acute because she had no idea we were on the other side of the wall peeping through the window. As much as I wanted to watch her, I banged very loudly on the wall to discourage her from getting too close to humans' habitations. She definitely heard and felt that, jumping down off of the porch, crossing the creek, and running halfway up the steep ridge on the other side with her tail literally tucked before stopping to turn around. Sadly, we barely got a picture of her, much less video, but watching her cover territory I've traveled as agilely and quickly as she did gave me a real appreciation for her athleticism from a relatively safe vantagepoint!
Ironically, I know the date of the bear interaction because it was my wedding anniversary. After driving to Montana for our honeymoon, we returned to the most glorious splendor of Fall in our mountains I can still recall though, admittedly, I had really missed our trees. I believe we have managed to make it an annual tradition for most of the 21 years we've been married...until this year. We didn't know it would be the last time my mother was able to be close to her "pretty place"...really the end of an era in so many ways and my heart, body, and soul yearn for a visit. I haven't given up hope yet but, either way, I think I may have missed a sign but appreciate the reminder now!
If you have house pets beware, coyotes are Very assertive when foraging for prey. They will come right up to the front door 🚪
I absolutely love these beautiful animals..
That’s so cool that my two DSHs house cats behave in a very similar manor.
It shows how much work goes into living a normal natural life. So different from thankless couch potato living. Thank you for sharing this valuable lesson!
WoW...
That is one seriously INTENSE Kitty😼🔥💥🐿️=🍽️
Thanks for sharing😉👍
2:34 I'm thinking of that 3 Stooges episode when curly and the boys were following that dogs tail when he was in front of them looking around the building. LOL
Ok
look how incredibly gorgeous they are. unbelievable
also, notice how they move in absolute silence
Beautiful collection
Great work! Awesome! You must have maybe five cameras? This was really cool!
What an entertaining video. Thank you.
Now that was awesome to watch and the cat was beautiful
I get rats, grey squirrels, neighbourhood cats and the odd sneaky fox, once or twice there have been wood mice.
What amazing creatures.
Good video. That bobcat has the skills
Unbelievable that's happening on your property ! Awesome !!
Wow you must have a lot of trail cameras out to catch all that great footage. Very cool video.
