    Hey folks my F-I-L had this picture on his trail cam today when he checked it. Don't pay attention to the date, its wrong. The picture has been taken sometime in the last week. I'm a huge skeptic of large cats in IL. He seems to believe they are around. This picture definitely looks like some kind of feline to me, possibly a bobcat. Could be a yote to I guess. Give me some opinions.... what do you guys think.

    Its hard to tell. The picture is pretty blurry. I think it's a coyote, neck appears a little too long to be a bobcat, but could be wrong.

    I'm calling it a bobcat. No tail, it appears and the legs/paws give it away. I think. :p

    Definitely bobcat. I noticed the tail (or lack of one) right away.

    Looks like a bobcat. Look at the shape of the back legs and the dark coloration around the paws.
