After all the discussion about lynx in NH, I've been looking for tracks. No luck so far but I did find bobcat tracks today. The size (about 1.5-1.75 inch across), distinctive heel pad (two lobes on top, three lobes on bottom), and clarity of print all say bobcat. The biggest tip off: these tracks were in hot pursuit of snowshoe hare tracks. I don't know whether this is a front or back paw print, but probably back. February is a good time to see bobcat in the day. It's mating season, and the males are more active in the daytime than usual.
