Bobcat Hunting Gophers

A bobcat stops in a field.
Bobcat, Point Reyes National Seashore

This bobcat was hunting gophers.  Gophers are plentiful at Point Reyes, at least in the agricultural areas.  They are an important food source for coyotes, bobcats, badgers and other predators at the Seashore.  If this bobcat could talk he would probably say there is no such thing as too many gophers.
