So yall post up a pic of a fox that looks like that. That's no fox. I've never seen a fox like that.

its either a mama gray about to drop (after getting fatter on feed) or maybe a bobcat. a freind of mine that traps 100+ fox a year says he has caught a few fox fat like that before-- they were trapped near a feeder where they get food regular.

Don't know bout Ga but here in middle Tn I've seen cougars on numerous occasions. So it's possible they've migrated. We also have armadillos go figure.

I don't know if its a panther or not... But sure looks like one! This was off my cam in Walton county.

For comparison. Key in on the ear shape and space between them. Looks like a grey fox to me. Fox has a slight point to the top of its ear versus more rounded on the panther.

Knee deep.. Thats why im convinced it's a panther!

A mountian lion should be between 27" & 30" tall. Thats higher than knee deep even on us short folks. I guess you could walk in front of the camera and stand in the same spot and see what kind of size reference it gives you.
I looked at a few trail cam pics of cats from out west. The ears dont look right to me either.

i tried to blow it up to look at the tail but it pixelated out on me.

Bait it when you go back couple cans of jack mackerel and some cracklins in a hole in a bank bet we would see then.This is off the subject but has anyone ever found a bobcat den ive never seen one.

Have you found deer carcasses covered up with dirt and grass?

If you want to find out what you've got...get the dogs out there early morning after some rain moves through.

benosmose · May 5, 2012

I know this is redundant, but a recent conversation has made me want to comment about it.

So, it is said they are not in GA. But some guy killed one a couple years ago in North Ga and got fined and lost his hunting license.

I know GON offered a 1000 dollar reward for proof of a panther in Ga, but you would get in trouble if you kill one, which technically is not here, you get in deep doo doo.

So, as far as I know no one has come forward with any proof, because they said the one the guy killed was a pet.

I recently talked to an "anonymous" person, who knows alot about our new property we are hunting. He said to be careful that they have killed two tan panthers, there, (one on our property and the other right next door). I don't know this man personally, but I don't think he is lying. My buddy also, swears he saw one (tan panther or cougar) on the side of the road one night in Oliver, Ga. So, I am becoming a believer.

I have decided to start taking my pistol turkey hunting with me now. But if one of those things were to come in on a setup, I think I would have to shoot it.

Would you shoot one?

question, if you are turkey hunting you most likely have a shotgun loaded w/ some mean ammo, so why carry a pistol ?? snakes maybe, but letting a shot go usually, sorta, somehow tends to screw up the hunt....but the big question is why would you want to shoot a panther ???

If cats were in ga. you would find kills. It takes a lot of food for cats.
