Bobcats are solitary creatures until mating season

Bobcats are solitary creatures until mating season, hunting primarily at dawn or dusk. Over the weekend, this Bobcat was seen at a local farm in broad daylight. If they are hungry enough and their hunting efforts overnight are not successful, they may scout during the day. This individual with a limp has been sighted over the past few years, surviving despite their injury. Bobcats live off of medium-sized animals like rabbits and opossums, smaller rodents, and sometimes small deer.
