Can you ID this animal?

If you look closely you can clearly see the white patches on the backs of the ears.

I'm in the Bobcat camp. A blurry bobcat

Me too

Bobcat. Just shot one 2 weeks ago. Had to do a double take on my phone but sure looks like a Bob

 

[Sure Shot Mc Gee]

buck460XVR nailed it. A second and magnified look. I believe its a skinny ol' bob cat now too. I do believe I see a short tail and its muzzle a little more clearly when magnified. Debris on the ground sure does blend in though.

I'm firmly in the bobcat camp.

The body shape and snout look like a North American Tapir, but markings look a little different.

Thats what I as thinking but the legs look different also

Bobcat.

Tapir? Tongue firmly implanted in cheek?

I'd bet my car on bobcat. Honestly, it seems clear enough that I'm surprised it's even a question. The head is obviously blurred as is much of the body. It's obviously moving rather quickly. The left front leg is still enough to be quite clear, as is the coloring on the ears and the rear right leg. The classic tuft of hair on the right cheek is pretty obvious too.

color scheme says bobcat and a very emaciated one at that.

Tasmanian Tiger.

 

[MJFlores]

With zero doubt I say bobcat.

Legs look too long for a bobcat.

 

[Brian Pfleuger]

Legs too long? Seriously?

That is so obviously a bobcat. I am flabbergasted by arguments against it. The picture is a little fuzzy but it couldn't more clearly be a bobcat if it was painted "Bobcat" in blaze orange on it's side.

I agree, the white tips on the ears were the "smoking gun" to me... Dang

 

[reynolds357]

Bobcat? Nonsense. Its obviously an African ant eater whose tail got run over by a plow and cut off.

 

[Scorch]

Absolutely a bobcat. The white "windows" on the backs of the ears is a key identifier.

The height looks very tall to be a south Alabama bobcat, but the markings scream bobcat. What county is this in?

 

[ChasingWhitetail91]

Yea the front left leg gives it away. Maybe it heard the camera going off and tucked it's ears back as it took off?

Houston County. I agree that its a bobcat. Just looked a little different
