		<description><![CDATA[Lisa, those hares are extremely fast runners and can switch direction on a dime.  But they do get caught.  My dog ran one down many years ago to the horror of one of my neighbors who witnessed the chase and kill.  

The hare population in the neighborhood seems down in the past couple of years.  I wonder what the bobcats will hunt if they can&#039;t find enough hares.  I&#039;m always amazed when I see neighbors&#039; pet cats on the prowl in my yard.  Living on the edge of some deep woods, don&#039;t their owners realize that their &#039;little hunters&#039; could easily become &#039;the hunted?&#039;]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Gerry, I miss things all the time! I wonder how many years I missed knowing there were bobcats in these woods.  They wouldn&#039;t have suddenly appeared out of nowhere.  Glad you enjoyed Ryan&#039;s photos and the story.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I seen this guy or one of his relatives in our yard a couple years ago....he was chasing a rabbit, round and round.  Their chase led to the woods where we heard the rabbit lose.  Glad it happened in the woods as my kids and I were on our door step.  We had just come from our car when they leapt into the yard.  It was frightening and mesmerizing at the same time!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nadezhda, I looked up images of the Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx).  It too is quite beautiful.  Its reddish coat is gorgeous. The Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) is usually larger and more elusive than the bobcat (Lynx rufus) but also has a short tail.  Its population is closely tied to that of its primary food source:  the snowshore hare.]]></description>
