I have only seen one bobcat on our farm - a few years back while bow hunting. It went right under my stand stalking. I saw what it was stalking when it followed a ground squirrel up a tree about 10 yards from me. The cat was hugging the tree circling while batting its paws. The squirrel kept between the cats paws and after maybe 30 seconds the cat went back down the tree without dinner. It was amazing just at how at home bobcats are in trees. I have not seen one since. I did hear cat yowling during mating season one other time, but this was before I saw the bobcat, and I could not identify the sound. It was what I imagined a mountain lion would sound like. Bobcats have been sighted in every county in Indiana, and I am looking forward to their recovery. Maybe fewer prey numbers, but healthier individuals.
