I would definitely not be opposed to that mount in my study.

Gorgeous cat bud, congrats!

Info

I remember seeing that post several months ago, beautiful cat.

The biologist, John Baccus, was my wildlife professor when I was getting my BS in Wildlife Biology from SWT. Great guy...

So... Can you find out what they've discovered so far by studying its DNA?

[Gary Roberson]

Way cool! I have never seen one like that.
Adios,
Gary

Man that mount looks great! Congrats

That is beyond awesome. I have no desire to shoot bobcats, but would have to think really hard about that one. That may be the coolest thing i've ever seen in regards to Texas wildlife.

agreed

Depending on when all this was done, it may take time but I will see what I can find out and post here.

X2. Dr. Baccus is well respected in university wildlife circles. He did a lot of his research on melanistic deer in the Hill country, So he is very well versed on color phases. I don’t know when he left SWT, but is now at Texas Tech. Hope they were able to study the DNA.

Very beautiful and cool cat! Congratulations to the hunter!

mount info

That is one incredible animal.

I'd like to see more/better pictures of the mount.

I was able to pull up a full picture of the mount while mobile yesterday..... can't seem to find the link today.

I took a screen shot but am unable to upload for some reason (not a jpeg file?)
