I don't know. Wouldn't doubt that some have been called in ? Just never noticed I suppose ?

Hmm? That might be a partial answer? I'm told that lions kill bobcat when they have a chance, so it could be they are scarce in your places? Or, very cautious. Don't know?
But from what I have seen of southern Idaho, it's damned good habitat.

Dave, I really want a cat mount for the mantel.
Leonard, that is too funny. I think that was from the movie "Goodfellas." My father grew up in Newark in the 40's and 50's, and that was the way it was back then.

nope, The Godfather. See, the "driver" was a rat, so they had him drive over to Joisey where he was told to pulled over so fat man could take a leak while the guy in the back seat shot the driver in the head. Zipped up and said; "Take the Canoli, leave the gun".
Don't blame me, that's Hollywood's impression of New Jersey.
I spent about three days at Fort Dix before being shipped to Germany, just before Christmas 1960. That's how it was; (I swear) all the Lincoln's had a body in the trunk! ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

I did some training down at Fort Dix. The place is blistering hot in the summer and freezing cold in the winter.

I can verify the freezing cold in the winter, at Ft Dix. From there we went to the Brooklyn Naval Yard, which is where they kept the troop transports. The USS Gordon had my name on it. Great experience, Christmas on the North Atlantic, 40 foot swells. And, just my luck the slowest ship in the fleet. Not to mention, everybody else in my unit flew! But, I went home on leave for 15 days before stationed USAEUR. Those were the days.

Lots of points to be found around Barstow. When I lived there a friend and I would spend entire days looking for them. We both had a good collection. When Pete died of cancer his went to the San Bernardino Museum Society. Each point was documented as to where it was found. When I moved to Alaska I donated what I had.
Where I hunt in eastern Oregon I'm always tripping over artifacts. I leave them be. I find places where there are a lot of chips and chunks of obsidian where someone was making points.
In all the years I've called in eastern Oregon I have yet to call in a bobcat. You have to get a furtaker's permit and tags and I don't even bother any more. Lots of bobcats here on the west side. I've called them in locally and have seen them when I've been out fishing.
That's a nice looking cat.

Moe, south-eastern Oregon is LOADED with bobcat! That whole area, the extreme northern tier of Nevada and extreme southern Oregon and Idaho is home to some of the finest Lynx-cats in north America. They just don't get any better.

I know that eastern Oregon cats fetch a high price. Like $750. I know a few guys who live over in Burns and hunt a lot more than I do and only get maybe one cat per year and they've all been taken on private property.
I know there are bobcats over there but I've never called one in. I generally head to California to hunt every Fall and I've called a few cats in down there. In Arizona, too, but as yet haven't called one in eastern Oregon. It looks looks great bobcat country, too.

I once killed five cats in one night, in northern Nevada. The problem now is they changed things and cut out non residents.
I have been told that there is one guy up in Fallon that took 400 cats two years ago.
