The Hunter Becomes the Hunted

The Hunter Becomes the Hunted

This hunter is lucky he didn’t receive any injuries from this bobcat attack!

With two longbeards already tagged, Kevin Walter of Manassas, Va., was having a pretty good spring — but the most exciting moments of the season were yet to come. When the gobbler he was working this morning went tightlipped, Walter, a wildlife biologist at Fort Belvoir, set up in a new area on the side of a hill.

“After sitting for a few minutes I looked downhill and spotted a bobcat making its way toward me,” he said.

As the cat approached within 10 yards behind him, Walter took out his camera phone to record the seldom-seen animal.
