A large West Virginia cougar laying down next to a rock in the snow. These predatory cats once roamed the Appalachian forests and mountains. They require vast amounts of wilderness for their habitat. With the ever increasing population of the east coast mountainous areas it is becoming less likely that these magnificent wild cats will ever be seen in the wild again…

One of my favorite shots of a bobcat coming out from under this pine tree. This bobcat resembles a Lynx cat with gray and white colors and the snowy background. You should check out the video of this wild cat climbing a tree. These cats are really beautiful especially with this thick winter coat of fur.

A big mountain lion in a Winter West Virginia forest scene. Pine trees are heavy with snow while the green mountain laurel peeks out from under the fresh blanket snow. This cougar is well fed and is motionless staring in my direction. I certainly would not want to be this cats next meal. It probably outweighs me by 50 lbs.

Beautiful gray and white lynx bobcat prowling out from under a snow covered spruce tree. This fellow is likely looking for something to eat such as a rabbit or other small forest creature. These cats blend into a snowy forest background very well and use this to their advantage for hunting and stalking their prey.
