Bobcats maybe rare in your community, but in others, such as ranches in Texas, ranchers pay hunters to eradicate bobcats that pray on deer, goats and grandchildren.
Bobcats hunt ”…wildlife such as rabbits, squirrels, rats, mice, possums, raccoons, quail, jays, robins, wrens, sparrows and, occasionally, even deer.”]/i]
“Grandchildren”? What are the statistics on grandchildren attacked by bobcats?

More PURE Hogwash!
”Venomous Snakes (this is for all venomous snakes, not JUST rattlesnakes) Bite 7,000–8,000 People in the US Every Year.”
”57% of snake bites happened to people handling the snake.”
“28% of those bitten by a snake were intoxicated.”
”Honey bee stings and lightning strikes kill 20 times more people annually than all the rattlesnake bites combined.”

Gee, what do those two particular locations you’ve chosen have in common?
