BIG CAT PAGE

The videos below were all filmed in a one acre area. All the wild life I catch on video are always

looking around. Mountain lions however look straight ahead with no concern about possible

predators. The below lion was walking along the edge of a cliff a while after sunset.

I have only caught a big cat video in daylight twice. The two  below don’t appear to be fully grown.

Lion I caught on a game camera. I should of set the record time longer.

The two videos below were captured with a Chinese made game camera. The night videos were always
very grainy.

The video below is not  very easy to see. The  lion approaches from the right to  the left at eight seconds

into the video and then turns South along head of a ravine. The light in the distance is the infrared light

from another camera.

This Lion was trudging through six inches of snow during a heavy snowfall.

This lion walked north along the top of the East bank of Miller Creek and

then turned east and walked up the  bottom of the ravine. It walked across the back yard of at least six cabins.

I assume this cat is the same one that passed through two days earlier.  It placed  it’s paws exactly in the same

foot prints it left two days earlier. When it got to the end of the ravine it walked out on an elevated dock 100
feet and then jumped off on to the ice and continued into the rec area.

This cat stepped in front of a game camera that was set to take still photos.

This one almost brushed my camera.

Deer are the primary diet of mountain lions. This one came along about an hour after a lion passed through. 

He knows there is a big cat somewhere. I have caught hundreds of deer on camera but never one this spooked.

Bobcats

Some of these bobcats are pretty big. If they had a long tail you would

confuse them as a young mountain lion. One of the videos of a pair

of bobcat kittens is  two minutes long.

The following link is of two kittens. The second one shows up at 40 seconds into the video.

The first one was really curious what was over the edge of the cliff.

The next two videos are of a buck chasing a doe. He has her trapped between the bluff and

himself. The doe is at the far distant right at the beginning of the first video.
