Most Bob cats are in southern Alberta. Lynx in Northern/western Alberta. However trapper friend trapped a Bob cat near Valleyview last winter.

it takes a pack of dogs to tree a cougar and if the cougar gets cornered, the dogs are in trouble. a cougar goes up a tree only because it is easier than killing all those dogs one by one. one youtube clip I watched of a house security cam showed a cougar putting a big doberman in a chokehold in a blink of an eye. the only thing that saved the dog was a stout collar and chain. cougar tried to jump over the homeowners fence with the dog in its jaws and ran out of chain right at the top of the fence. cougar went over the top and the dog was jerked back into the yard. another clip showed a cougar killing a full grown wolf. anything that can kill a full grown elk deserves respect.
