I live 20 minutes east of Columbus. I've seen cat prints almost as big as my hand, so either we have panthers or mutant bobcats.

I have seen two mountains lions in Greene County and there have been several sightings since the deer population increased in late 1950s.BB

Since we're sharing big cat pics...

I have a trail cam setup on my property in Carnesville. Surprisingly, I caught this guy on camera. I thought it might be a bobcat, but the body type just doesn't look right. This guy looks slinky, not as much body mass as I would think a bobcat has. Then one of my neighbors said we have lynx in GA! I've never heard that and wondered what y'all's opinion was on this guy.

Yes, that's 100% bobcat, looks pretty normal to me. And no, there are no lynx in Georgia. Unless you count the fact that bobcats are technically known as Lynx rufus.

Yep young bob cat, I'v seen a couple lynx while working and hunting in Maine, they are normally way bigger than a bobcat, at least their heavy coat makes them look that way, they also have a very large track, their feet look like their about 3 times too big.They are also colored differently than a bob cat, they also have a very pronounced (tuft), on their ears, at least I think thats what it's called, I also read that the lions that were introduced to south Ga some years ago were steril, also some were trapped in the wild from texas, and relocated there and some were introduced from captivity, from what I read they scattered, if they were really steril they all should be dead by now.

Yes there is too. Where is the time date stamp on the pic?
What is that white object to the starboard side of the pic?

All I see is a Bigfoot IN the tree over the cat, way in the back ground.......That is clearly a Bigfoot!
You can see its long arms extended out, kind of like a flying pose, if you will. Cone shaped head......its all there. surely you all see it too:huh:
