MANCHESTER, N.H. (WHDH) -- A a possible bobcat sighting in a New Hampshire backyard earlier this week put a nearby school on alert.

The sighting prompted officials at Henry J. McLaughlin Middle School to send out a notice ahead of a school dance scheduled for Friday evening. Officials asked parents to pick their children up from the dance as a precaution.

“Just very low to the ground, and it was just kind of very muscular type of animal. It’s not like a typical cat and it was just kind of going very slowly,” said Keith Raho.

I'd like to watch that take on a coyote or wild turkey, or attack a liberal.

I ran into a cougar at a bowling alley.

 

[BerkshireHunter]

Wow, there's a whole lot of fail in that video. Did the fish and game guy show up wearing a helmet and with a bracelet on his wrist?

The mountain lion problem is even worse in far northern California. (Be sure to click the picture to enlarge it.)

I would like to see a Dogo rip that thing apart.

I bet it's not a good idea to have a Dogo and a pet cat, is it?

"A New Hampshire man didn't expect that in a city of nearly 200,000 people he'd have a rare encounter with a massive wild animal."

So, something raccoon sized is "massive"?
