Me and my Buddy used to feed the 2 LYNX that Ford Motor Company used on their car commercial. Wait until one of them comes into heat, they will have to feed them with a slingshot. When they get a little older their attitudes will change, and not for the better. Ask them ol boys that had the white tigers at the circus.
This is just a "train-wreck" just waiting to happen as these bobcats get older in my opinion. Wild animals live in the "wild" for a good reason.
Probably in a couple of years or maybe less, there will be a story about OOOPS, the "so-called owners" of these wild animals were mauled and BOTH bled to death !!!
PS: It would be very interesting to see them try and play with all of the BOBCATS THAT I POSTED IN THE TRAILCAMERA FORUM ON HERE ABOUT A MONTH AGO BECAUSE SOME OF THEM ROAMING MY PROPERTY ARE HUGE.
I remember back when I was a teenager, one of the trapping supply catalogs I used to get had a picture of a guy on the cover with two grown bobcats with collars on chains.
I had a customer years ago that had a snow leopard. It would stare right through you. I can't imagine that thing opening a can on you. That's what nightmares are made of. Those Bobcats will shred those folks
