Subject:   Our new neighbor, the bobcat.

Bob isn't at the cabin, but at our house in Shelby Co.   If I could relocate him to the lake, he could rid me of all the armadillos.  I've been researching trapping, but these cats are wary and sight-oriented, unlikely to get into a baited live trap.   Leg traps are out, we have too many friendlies in the area to risk catching a dog.     Looked up Critter Control last night, but they don't even list bobcats as pests they will deal with.  No kidding, I'm not sure I want to tangle with this guy myself.  He must weigh 20-25 lbs.

As bold as this guy is, I would still have to walk around with a gun all the time and draw like Dead-eye Dick.    He moves way too fast for me.

The big question is whether s/he is likely to move on naturally  or if it has fixed on potential prey and will stick around.   Anybody know anything about bobcat habits and behavior?
