German shepherd almost killed by bobcat

Bobcat Kills Labrador In North Ozaukee Co

A coworker told me this yesterday. His friend in the middle of the night a week ago was awakened by his dog barking. Apparently the dog was kept in the garage with door opened a few inches. They made the mistake of opening the door and the dog took off. The dog went missing for a few days but was found dead not to far away with it's throat torn open. The DNR was called in and there conclusion was a bobcat killed the dog. I have lived in Ozaukee Co (southern end) for 50 years and saw my first bobcat 2 years ago in mid March on the county line Rd between OZ and Milw Co's near the Milw River. I did not think a bobcat could take down a full grown dog the size of a Labrador Retriever wow.

Bobcats are slightly larger than house cats. Rare big male bobcat can weigh up to 60 pounds. It's a very big bobcat (Adult female gray wolves in northern Minnesota weigh between 50 and 85 pounds)
