Bobcat Makes Visit to Florida Backyard

Occurred on October 13, 2018 / Port Saint Lucie, Florida, USA

Info from Licensor: "This was taken in my backyard of an adult wild Florida Bobcat. We’ve spotted her/him several times in years past in our yard or the 2 undeveloped lots next to our home, but catching her on film has proven extremely difficult, as she is elusive and doesn’t stay in one spot very long. On this particular morning, I spotted her/him coming from the deep trees of our backyard as I sat on my porch. I ran and grabbed my phone as quickly as possible and carefully and quietly opened the screen door to get closer. Although she noticed me, she didn’t run away as she’s done in the past and I was able to get this awesome video of this beautiful wild animal. Although they are not endangered in Florida, they are rarely seen here as they are nocturnal hunters. So this was quite a treat for the entire community."
