see post #61

There is evidence that they are out there, though in VERY small numbers.

I disagree about the bear thing though. In general I think you’ll find that large cats keep themselves well hidden and hunt more steathly. Where as bears will approach houses and campsites without fear.

> It looks more like a lynx to me, but that’s more than likely a bobcat. They reintroduced lynx back in the late 80’s in the NE Adirondack’s. Bobcat are pretty widespread in upstate NY. I saw one hiking when I was about 13.

I think I mentioned it on here before, the building inspector said he saw one in my driveway and I was like, “Yeah, whatever”  
but then one morning I walked outside and he (the bobcat) was about 15’ from me. We stared at each other for about 20 seconds and he then he left.

Edit: Speaking of wildlife, I saw a mink or a fisher or whatever you want to call it last week. Kind of rare too.
