Bobcat picking off one by one-Need advise

[neverbdone]

Oh C(@p I was afraid of this. My neighbor has a medium hav-a-hart trap I have borrowed, but not nearly big enough for this. I'm going to have to check out a leg trap. Any suggestions? Five years and never this kind of trouble. Now the dogs are out barking again at 8:30 in the dark. This critter is too fast for us to get the 22 in general unless it makes a mistake..

This is a good link with the particulars: http://icwdm.org/handbook/carnivor/bobcat.asp

(I only put out sets for fox - the `cats' here don't infest the dissected uplands).

How much would you give me to take it with a 22!

Jersey - If you want to come to CA and show us how, I'll pay room and board as long as you want. Actually, I'm going to verify the rules with Fish and Game. I don't know what the trapping rules are and I have never used a leg trap before. Looks like another country learning curve for us. I think I'll also check with Harbor Freight for leg traps. I'll probably have to mail order scent too.
