Wild Creature Roams Free in Putnam County Caught on Tape
Seeing wildlife in people's backyards never gets old. It does not matter how many videos I get, each time feels like the first time. This submission came to me from a friend of the I-95 Morning Show that goes by Southern Rock Joe.

Joe says he was at his father-in-law's house in Mahopac, New York on Sunday when this stunning creature roamed into the backyard. Joe says he took his video and then went back into the house on the advice of his "wonderful wife."
NOTE: The video of the bobcat was taken at the end of Front Street by the bike path at 10:30 am on Sunday (5/19/24). If you live near that, you may be in for a free show soon. Keep your camera close and your head on a swivel.
What Should I Do if I See a Bobcat in My Yard?
The Humane Society says: "If a bobcat doesn’t appear scared of you, they probably learned to associate people with food (likely because someone has been feeding them) and may exhibit boldness or even approach you. These bobcats can easily be scared away by making loud noises such as yelling or blowing whistles, dousing them with water houses or squirt guns or throwing objects such as tennis balls toward them."
They add that just seeing a bobcat is NOT an indication that the animal is rabid, sick or aggressive. For more information on bobcats, just Google bobcats.
