They can survive in many different habitats, from forests to swamps to deserts. Bobcats are usually light gray to reddish-brown, with darker spots and stripes throughout their coat. Named after their short, “bobbed” tails, bobcats are also identified by their pointed ears and ruffed faces. Bobcats will eat almost any prey they can catch, one of the primary reasons for their success as a species. They eat mostly rabbits, but will also prey on other small mammals, birds, deer, and even human pets if given the chance. The wild bobcat population is considered stable, even increasing in some areas. […]

What typical bobcat behavior, and there are few cats more opportunistic than these guys! I would imagine when your last duck is gone, so is the bobcat, for a while. They’re good but not horse good.

I’m sure he will come back occasionally to check the yard even if all your birds are gone, just out of curiosity to see if you’ve given him more food.

Most are fenced in. Our property is fenced in the front, but not in the back. We have been losing chickens here and there, but now it is every 2-3 days and our ducks are disappearing. Finally got a camera and it is definitely a bobcat. He just waltzed onto the property from the front gate, snatched a full-size duck and ran back the way he came. I would say they are opportunistic, and it knows where to come for dinner. Only problem is, we only have one duck left. Is it going to go for our horse next?

Contact your local wildlife organization, or wildlife control for the state.

They need special looking after, and most people are not qualified to do this anyway. They are much better off, and much healthier, living in their native habitat
