A bobcat was spotted at Local Springs Park in Kyle on May 14, according to a post by the Kyle Police Department.
Authorities are reminding Hill Country residents to take proper precautions after a bobcat was spotted on a local walking trail. The Kyle Police Department said it received a report May 14 about a possible mountain lion sighting at Cool Springs Park . After further investigation, the agency’s animal control division and Texas Parks and Wildlife determined the animal was actually a bobcat.
“If you come across wildlife, avoid turning your back to the animal,” the May 20 post read. “Instead, walk away slowly and deliberately while making noise.” It’s not unusual for bobcats to be spotted in and around the Hill Country, especially as residential construction pushes them away from their natural habitats. Facebook users who commented on the post echoed the sentiment, sharing stories of the bobcats they’ve encountered in areas including Creekside Village and Brooks Ranch.
