If I ever get a chance at one of those, it will be full body mounted. That is awesome!

this weekend we were out pretending to bow hunt (ie bow in hand but got nothin...) and ran across some big cat tracks..
the print was ~3.5 inches across
we decided that although you arent supposed to carry a gun while bow hunting, there is no way we will be out there without at least one fire arm

OK bow hunters.....if you must....take a handgun and a camera..................and a big roll of TP.
The order that you will need these items is as follows.
1) TP
2) Handgun
3) Camera
4) Lay the bow down and use the arrow to dig your shorts out.

this isn't the best picture, but it almost looks like it could be an aoudad. have yall ever seen any on or around your place before?
10:18p, 10/19/08
lol, well to me it looks like a kind of short tail for a mtn lion and it almost looks like it has long hair on the chest. we need some more pics of this beast
10:21p, 10/19/08
can you not see the cat ears on that thing? or the long tail dragging the ground? not an aoudad.

More a curiosity than anything, why does the depth on the feeder look different when the foreground looks the same? May just be something playing tricks with my eyes. In the night shot, the feeder looks closer than in the day.
There's probably a good legit reason (like my eyes playing tricks).

Giddings, if that photo was sent to the state mammologist, I can almost guarantee he would fixate on that detail.

First look at the daytime pictures and I thought "Man that looks exactly like the terrain I hunt in(just outside of Evant)". Then I noticed you're outside of Lampasas...small world.

It's nuts are in the wrong place for a mountain lion.
Not sure what it is, but not a cat.
I do know you have them around there, because we have them in San Saba County, But that's not a cougar.

You need to get Reece Bobby to come trap that thing for you.

I'd just like Doc H to circle the nuts. Some think it's an Aoudad and some think it's a Mountain Lion and he knows the sex.

A couple of years ago TPWD trapped and collared a number of mountain lions in south Texas.
They noted that the lions would travel a distance and then stop for a day or two and then move again. They went out to see what was at each of the spots they stopped at...a feeder.

I have a friend that is a mountain lion guru....track them, trap them, catch them, hunt them....whatever you want.
They trapped one several years ago in south Florida and put a tracking device on it. It moved out of south Florida all the way to the panhandle. Came back across the panhandle and into Georgia. It was back into central Florida when they lost the tracking capability.
