Generally Lynx are the species they want reported, as they are endangered. I'm not 100% sure about bobcat, so I would check with fish and wildlife's website! I think they have an animal sighting report thing somewhere.

This is a great question. It's a difficult ID to place, and many people think they are the same animal, or confuse them. https://vtfishandwildlife.com/canada-lynx-or-bobcat-learn-the-difference Generally, Lynx have longer cheek and ear tufts.

It's a bobcat. Unfortunately, The catamount is extinct in Vermont. https://www.wcax.com/content/news/Catamount-officially-declared-extinct-470983003.html

Lakes region in central NH is beautiful. There are tons of cool museums and food joints, plus if its late april you may be able to ride the Mount Washington on lake Winniepausaukee. (Not sure when she comes out of dry dock, though)

I understand you feel strongly, however I suggest doing some research before spewing hate at a community you know nothing about.

You’re right. Theres a huge issue with people letting their dogs have free reign of property that doesn’t belong to them. Its unfortunate.

I can see judging by your first piece of text, you know very little about trapping laws. They are required to check every 24 hours and often do so more frequently, so it would not be days. I am happy to explain to you why conservation is important and why trapping, hunting and fishing isn’t cruel when done properly, if you’re willing to have an open mind about it.

Oh my god thats wild! I have so much respect for the trapping community of Vermont. I was lucky enough to talk to a local trapper while shadowing a warden who showed us all his gear and skins. It was absolutely fascinating!

I keep mine in the fridge- but only because I like it cold. I have had it both in the fridge & cabinet and it's been fine both ways : )
