Bobcat Versus Rattlesnake!

Some cats apparently shy awake from a direct confrontation with deadly snakes. Not this one. It’s faster than the snake, and won the battle.
This was a legitimate fight to the death.

Well done, kitty cat, well done! Kinda crazy, but well done.
Must have been pretty hungry to take the risk. Or just the daring type, maybe.
And the finale of the familiar (to cat owners) wriggling around on her back gave me a chuckle.

Good cat. Probably doing the world a favor. Did not like sharing it sand bath.

Here kitty. That’s a good kittah!
And yes *eye roll, I want to pet it.
More seriously though, that’s some cat. I like it. Pretty sure that’s a girl, and not full grown. That was a big Rattler none the less. Cats are something alright, what a creation.

Stupid keyboard!
Except it’s NOT a Bobcat, it’s a Lynx. The EARS identify it.

@Geoff is right! Much tougher than a bobcat. I was starting to be impressed as we have plenty of bobcats, but Lynx are up north.

@Geoff,
I think you’re right. Jerry Clower called a Lynx a “supped up wildcat.”
I did take the time to look closely and stayed true to the title of the cited article. Thanks for noticing.

Had a Lynx cross the street while I was at an airbase in CA back in 2018. The paws were massive compare to fox, wolf, bobcat. Looked abnormally large, and I read that it’s a characteristic of Lynx
