This ain’t a kittypet people.
This is a wild animal. It isn’t going to think “finally, mommy is here to make it all better”
It is injured and scared, it is scared of you too!!

Pound for pound a Bobcat is Hell on 4 legs. I’m sorry someone got bit but stupidity is often expensive.

Not a smart move without the proper equipment and training.

She’s lucky her face is still attached. A bobcat is bad enough but an injured one will be bat crazy!

My girlfriend's own indoor/outdoor housecat...one tough female...died from injuries sustained in a fight with a coyote a month ago. When my girlfriend went to try to help her after the altercation, she was attacked ferociously by her own domesticated cat.
All seriously injured animals are dangerous. Wear gloves and turtlenecks, carry blankets when coming to their aid!

Happened to a friend of mine, who stopped to help an injured animal. Wild animals bite when wounded. Don't do what this woman did, or face rabies treatment as a precaution, as my friend did.

My late uncle would have appreciated this story. He was the dispatcher for the local SPCA.
He would get calls all the time to send units to chase wild animals. Once a lady called and demanded that they remove the ducks from the river so they didn’t freeze.
Another lady put a small deer in the trunk of her car and then asked what she should do next.
They just yelled at him when he tried to explain that they were wild animals and to leave them alone.

She just made matters worse. Now the animal has to be put down to analyze it’s brain tissue for rabies.

Pound for pound a Bobcat is Hell on 4 legs. You ain't wrong!! The only critter of relatively the same size that is meaner would be a wolverine.

She must be a liberal. Thinks/thought wild animals and humans can live together in peace and harmony.

Grabbing a wildcat is easy - letting go is another matter entirely.

I onc saw a women holding a car hit deer head in her lap petting it.
When the police showed up she yelled at them that truck hit it and just drove away. It as a large truck I am sure it had no damage.
She then asked the officer what he was going to do he said shoot it. She jumped up screaming no ran to her car and drove away fast.
The officer seeing deer was already dead went back to his crusier and drove away.

A boibcat can kill an adult male human. They have done it many times, esp. during the settlement of the West.
