Why would you want to kill the Kitty Kitty ? It's not like your going to eat it .

[mjc89]

Dang id like to go hunt bob cat. What caliber is needed to hunt them. I mostly deer hunt and bird hunt.

[old pudd fisher]

Would rather get a nice shot of the cat with my Nikon Camera, but if thats your thing injoy :Neutral:

[shakesmvl]

I am using a 12 g shotgun

[mjc89]

I have a 20ga Remington 870. That area is a lead free area right?

[youngfish]

I'm down. Let's talk details

[kaneo]

how about i come over and shoot your dog and cat.... leave the bobcats alone. and i would be willing to bet that bobcats and mountian lions are illegal to hunt down here in so.cal. ? even coyotees are illegal to kill... bobcats are some of the most beautiful cats around, and serve a purpose in our eco system... if you want to shoot bobcat go to montana.. leave piru's cats alone... and since the dfg watches this site, you might not want to post shooting bobcats on here anyway...

[Ducttapeking]

Coyotes are varmints can be takin at any time in any way unless something has changed in the last year or so

Try shooting Mice or Rats if you have any skills, more of a challenge. Kill off Bobcats then we will have a
Rodent or Rabbit over population infestation.

Simple but delicious Bobcat recipe.

Wrap Bobcat backstrap with fresh chitlins.

Boil for one hour.

Enjoy. It's fantastic. Don't spoil the delicate
taste with any seasoning.

Recently there has been a great public outcry in opposition to the hunting of bobcats for sport.

Any avid bobcat hunters seriously interested in preserving their sport should visit this site:

Ah ha... you've been cat rolled!!! mu hahahhahhahaaaa

[DarkShadow]

DFG have tags for moronic humans?

Or do we have to let mother nature run its course for their removal from the planet?

[smokehound]

Show a petition to ban this, and I will sign it with a metallic marker.

99 percent of people shooting cats dont protect themselves against dangerous diseases.

Canine Distemper, Rabies, Feline Immunodeficiency Virus, and a wide range of others can be transmitted and spread.

Then y'all wonder why your neighbor's dog suddenly dropped dead at the age of 3.

You can carry the virus, and give it to your own pet.

[shakesmvl]

i did not know this was a peta site if you do not lke hunting move on if there was a shortage of bobcats they would not give tags out

[smokehound]

Why don't you read the name of the site.... Fishing Network.....

[BiGPaC]

Why don't you read the name of the site.... Fishing Network.....

Funny, because on my computer this thread comes up under "General," sub heading "Non-Fishing."

Just saying...

Bobcats are a predator and they prey on many other game animals that many on here support hunting, including deer, turkey, quail...

There are plenty of bobcats in CA, the number killed by hunters does not harm their overall numbers.

Just as a follow up, as I am typing this i am looking at a side banner ad for "Gander Mtn: Shop all the best hunting gear," I was also just looking at the DVL page and the top banner ad was for the "Concealed Carry Report."

JasonThank you for displaying a classic example of the Tragedy of the Commons. With that attitude, bobcats will go extinct before you know it. Oh, and BTW there has never been evidence of a Bobcat killing an adult deer. There's nothing wrong with hunting, provided you EAT THE ******* THING.

I don't think I said anything about "adult" deer.

Hmmm... tragedy of the commons... I am pretty sure that after Hardin came up with that idea he later clarified it to reflect more appropriately the tragedy of the unmanaged commons. There is a pretty clear system of management in place regarding hunting. Not saying that I agree with the system of management all the time, but there is definately a system of management in place.

[Ducttapeking]

If bobcats coyotes and other predators were to never be hunted then they would be overpopulated and starve to death anyway a few here and there just to keep them from getting out of control don't hurt

On another note in the last few years deer hunting in ca has sure takin a dive they just seem to be getting smaller and smaller never much more than a forkie anymore at least in my experience

Been thinking cleaning up the ole mini14 and doin some varmint hunting maself

[DarkShadow]

On another note in the last few years deer hunting in ca has sure takin a dive ...

Now, can that be attributed to the DFGs lack of resources to actually ascertain a certain population of deer and THEN ascertain how many tags they should be selling? You know, kinda how they have been mismanaging the striper fishery in California for decades?

Or am I to believe that apex predators have increased in population so much, that they are eating all the deer? A combination of both?

[Ducttapeking]

Dfg don't have enough money to do research and see how many deer are actually takin they just know how many tags are sold I'm sure a lot more deer tags are sold then bobcat

I think that all hunters should have to report their success to dfg kinda like they do for bear tags after so many are takin season closed

They're lucky enough to get a single pup or kitten to survive. Like all cats, the males have a habit of killing kittens to force a female into estrus. Other Lynx genus cats are in serious trouble, like the iberian lynx.

Bobcats aren't like domestic cats, the males dont gather in groups, and they do NOT form colonies.

Well aint chew da smart one I reckon u sure are an opinionated feller I reckon u should run for da president of the American land and go save da bobcat poperlation

While I don't care to shoot bobcats coyotes are my fav got one with a 30.06 one time boy u should have seen dat feller spin


God bless America Copenhagen and ice cold Coors original lol

[Ducttapeking]

Yeah coyotes aren't overpopulated bs
There's a hell of a lot more than what u see from your Prius drivin down the road

[fishmounter]

Smokehound, can I shake your hand?... You've said it all for me. Except why the F would anyone want to shoot a beautiful animal that they are not going to eat? (they won't eat it) For the skin? If they are lucky and do more than fatally wounding it, they are going to just leave it dead where they shot it or possibly it might make it into a trash can. I Don't understand these "sportsmen".

they have done studies on coyotes you kill 99 percent for 3 years and there will still to many they can breed every 6 weeks

(not that there's anything wrong with the Prius, it's a good car, saves you TONS of money, and it's silent, lets you creep up on your kids when they ditch school.)

Sounds to me like you're compensating for something with that attitude, and desire to shoot animals just for the sake of killing them.

Coyotes aren't overpopulated. The problem is, we're encroaching on their land, destroying habitat for their prey, and tantalizing them with delicious little rat-dogs, often left unattended.

Its when all these hillside soccer-moms lose a pet (or small child) to a coyote, that the media blows things way out of proportion, which is where the whole "overpopulated" lie comes from.

Hey, I think I found some of your friends!:

WHEN THEY OUTLAW BOBCAT HUNTING ONLY OUTLAWS WILL HAVE... no, wait, that's not what I'm trying to say.

THEY CAN HAVE MY BOBCAT WHEN THEY PRY IT FROM MY COLD, DEAD... hang on, that ain't right either.

KILL MY BOBCAT ONCE, SHAME ON... dang!

I KILL STUFF FOR FUN, LIKE HITCH-HIKERS AND... oh, no that's not right either.

Hey, what were we talking about?

[Nessie Hunter]

ROTFLMOA @ City Dad........ Thanks for the chuckle....

[Troutman65]

I understand hunting for food. Hunting for a trophy to just hang on the wall is just so 1950's

[Viejo]

I quit hunting in 1970 when I got back from my second tour overseas. It just seems pretty senseless to me to kill something I wouldn't eat although I still have a number of friends who hunt and eat what they kill. I am happy to get the feathers from my Chukar, Quail, Duck hunting friends to tie flies with. Where we live, we have large numbers of Coyote...Fox...Bobcat and an occasional Bear and Mountain Lion. As I type this, 3 coveys of quail are picking over the hay leavings.

[Dr. MindBendo]

Yee haw! Haven't read a good hillbilly thread in awhile. Never been a fan of hunting. Just doesn't make sense to me to kill a unknowing, defenseless animal. I also highly doubt the Bobcat is thriving in So. Cal.

Stripers eat deer now ? . Damn I'll stop using trout then ...

i guess i need to end this all i wanted was a nother legal hunter to hunt with you people are to much its ok to fish in spots that are posted but legal hunting is bad thats bs

[shakesmvl]

this got to out of hand i did not ask what your views are on legal hunting. I was just looking for someone to hunt with. I moved here 6 yrs ago, Just wondered I someone wanted to go hunting with me.

[mil sonrisas]

no need to apologize shakes. i grew up hunting and fishing, and they were by far the one thing i loved doing with my family. now i only fish and havent had a chance to hunt. while growing up i often sat in the deer stand and saw bobcats running across the senderos and always had to think really hard about wether it was a good idea to shoot or not. i never did, they were just too beautiful to shoot. other people in our camp did shoot, and quite a few. it never bothered me because i believe in an individuals personal choice. wether i think it's wrong or right shouldnt matter on what you do. you enjoy yourself and be safe!

Nothing wrong in hunting . I like to hunt . Hunting for food is one thing . Hunting the Bob Cat ( I like to call Kitty kitty ) is a another . Trophy hunting I will call it . I think If you were asking to deer hunt it might be another story all together . People can relate to hunting to food . Hunting just to kill some beautiful creature that is so majestic in nature is just not cool anymore . You have every right to hunt what you want with in the law . Good luck and I hope that works for you .

[DarkShadow]

Yee haw! Haven't read a good hillbilly thread in awhile.

Aww, cmon, you know the ole paisas love to go on 'cacería' excursions, where they pack more Tecates than bullets. Makes 'em feel at home.

Then they make some mean venado to go with the rabbits that they shoot.

Anyhow, never eaten bobcat before.

I was taught 1 thing by my grandfather.

"If you shoot it, you have to eat it."

Well he taught me 2 things, but the advice to never to date women who drink Jack straight, and have tattoos of daggers, but that's another story for another time.

But, for conveniences sake, I'd rather go to Ralphs to buy my steak, rather than shooting a cow and trying to butcher while it hangs upside down from a tree.

[Poxy Boggards]

I agree with an earlier poster. Go hunting with your camera unless you plan to eat what you kill.
