Yep I bet on the cat before I watched the video . Cats are just plain fast.

Twice in south Texas I have pulled up to a set, had a bobcat in a leg hold, and had a 6 foot rattler right next to it trying to figure out how to "get this thing." Both rattlers became Lakota Sioux Indian custom knife sheaths . They were both so intent on the bobbie they were easy to harvest. Nature is awesome! Blessings, Mark

i saw this on Facebook a few weeks ago, amazing video.
i have a buddy that is fairly knowledgeable that thinks it is a lynx because of the long ear tufts.
IDK if it's a bobcat or a lynx. The video is from southern California. Which specie is native there?
Eh...wot?

How these snakes thought they were gonna swallow a 16-18 lb cat (both times females) is a mystery, but I figured they must give it some thought. The first time I saw it, I thought was a fluke, but the second time made me go hmmm.
Blessings, Mark

IDK if it's a bobcat or a lynx. the video is from southern California. Which specie is native there? It really doesn't have the snowshoe paws of a lynx and I don't see lynx and rattlesnakes sharing habitat. Very cool recording.

Wow. It looked to me like the bobcat knew exactly what it was doing and wasn't the first time it had taken a rattler. Looked like it had been taught. That is exactly what I was thinking.That was cool!Thanks for sharing it.
