I have seen a albino bobcat. Should I try to trap it this season?

It is actually a very "playful" cat. It had came up to my camp to take my spam samwitch I had been eating earlier at the campfire. I'd hate to trap it.... I think I'll just keep it a secret.....

Trap it and sell to a taxidermist for the highest bidder. You'll be amazed at what it will bring.

I got $100 for an albino coon I caught this year. It is amazing what people will pay for something they really want.

It is on an private 180 acre farm/camp. It stays in a secluded holler. I set a cage trap to give to a state game reserve but it seems to be very VERY trap shy.

I'm packing my bags for Charlston West Virgina and buy an out of state lisence.LOL
It would be great to not trap it and observe it as time goes on, but if it leaves your hollow or someone else see it, let alone in hunting season. I'm sure they'll take it if they get the chance. I know its hard to keep something like that a secret. But as soon as you tell someone, anyone, its over. See you just had to tell us, but we don't actually know you or where your camp is, but a buddy thats another story. I'd try to get it on Dvd or something. Just so you'll always at least have that, and if you do catch it I'd mount it for yourself. you'll probablly never see another. You are a lucky guy.
