An older Tom just past prime but not real old by the look of his teeth.
He was well fed and carried a good bit of fat.Probably eating off the grouse boom here this year.
Much different animal than a lynx.Smaller,shorter legged,shorter fur but more stocky build,although smaller than a lynx the bobcat is noticeably much heavier weight,bigger head,dark colour meat compared to lynx,longer tail noticeably smaller blackish feet,much smaller claws and a longer tail.No ruffs on the face to speak of compared to the long ruffs on a lynx face,and the eyes appeared bigger in the skull when skinned.The eyeholes in the pelt were also bigger.Also the jaw muscles were heavier formed and bulged more than the lynx jaw muscles.

nice . every few years a lynx gets caught down here.
