Cool.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

I think it's a stretch to call that cat black or melanistic like the article does. Looks more like a blue lynx in it's summer coat. Still rare but far from a first. Having said that, it's hard to say for sure with the poor picture quality.

Be nice to see a pic of it in winter.
Some guy in the Maritimes caught a black bobcat a couple years ago.
I have heard of black lynx sightings around here but never paid them much attention.

I know a houndman that caught a black bobcat down in Oklahoma in the 80s. He has a bunch of pictures of it. You can faintly see the pattern on it, but I would truly call it black. Never heard of a black lynx though.

Why does it look like the feet were added? You can see rings around three of the four legs.
