One was a Bobcat and the other I can't quite remember. I used to be in to this subject years ago too when younger, my friend used to read Fortean Times. Bizarre I know, just started getting back into researching about things again. Interesting you replied anyways...

I used to read that...and travel that area as well..

it wouldn't surprise me. Do foxes take down much bigger prey? We've watched them sit and wait for a cat to finish eating scraps before they've moved in. Didn't square off but then again if it were hungry we might have seen some action.
