- My friend just texted me about seeing a potential bobcat near Wilbur.
Keep an eye out for your pets but don't feed it or go near it. Leave it alone. They don't usually hurt people and especially if you avoid them. (Nextdoor Fort McKay) - I thought I saw a bobcat in Wilbur but it was far off into the woods.
I don't freak out everytime I see them. They gotta live somewhere. Just be mindful for your pets. (Nextdoor Fort McKay)
