Group of bobcats spotted strolling through 4S Ranch.

SAN DIEGO (NEWS 8) — It's a sight no one with small children or pets wants to see: a group of bobcats strolling through a residential neighborhood. Bobcats were recently spotted in a 4S Ranch neighborhood and Sunday morning one resident captured video of them.

That looks like a momma bobcat with two older kittens. I'm not sure I'm sold on this being a newsworthy occurrence. (Though I'm happy to see it posted here in the CA mammal forum.)

Its news-worthy in that these residents and the news agency would rather not live with, or co-exist with, wildlife.

Upon further reading, I see that the gist of the article is "This is pretty normal, so don't let your pets wander out on their own at night." which seems like a fair point.

True enough, Biohexx1.

Incidentally, this is a very wealthy neighborhood of San Diego which has carved its existence into chaparral.

Sigh. I notice momma's looking a little skinny. The two kittens seem healthy, though.
