I don't have any pictures, yet, but was told Saturday that a big tan cat with a very long tail, that does not exist in NC, has been seen crossing just below my property. An a big black one, not far away.

@Pbj ak, what part of Wilkes do you live in? I have a lot of ancestors, Anderson's, that lived in the Hunting Creek area of Wilkes county. My gggrandfather is buried on top of the mountain about a mile behind Cherry Grove Baptist Church, which was their old home place.A lady that lives less than a half a mile from me said she saw a large cat with long tail crossing the road in from of our place. She’s an older god fearing woman with no reason to lie and I’m hoping to see it myself sometime.
good luck and I’ll be watching for your pictures.

My place is just barely over in the edge of Alleghany Co., in Laurel Springs.

The bass turd.View attachment 254728 does a coyote S in the woods?
It could be a big domestic cat. I wish it was looking at the trailcam instead of walking away from it.You never know, I’d be taking a walk out through there the next few nights. How cool would it be to see a lion in the wild, as long as you’re properly armed and a way to see would be nice too.
edited to add: If your luck is anything like mine it might be a house cat but it’s still fun to go out walking late at night.
The $30 cams from walmarts are good. 8 megapixel and they have a fast capture rate. I have one that is 6mos on same batteries going right now in my yard.I really need to put a couple cams in my yard. there seems to be piles of deer poo inside the fence around my pool. it's believable since we've seen deer. I was thinking maybe a giant bunny because we have those too.
it seems that decent cams are expensive though. I don't need cell service (good luck getting a signal anyway) but if I could throw some old 1-4GB sd cards in and check every couple weeks...
According to the state, mountain lions are extinct in NC, but it is illegal to shoot one.Shoot you’re right. But that only leaves a mountain lion... can’t be?
The difference in size between the 2 critters in those pictures is a lot. What do you think the second one is?It could be a big domestic cat. I wish it was looking at the trailcam instead of walking away from it.
But always tasty as FGotta bake that on 450 for 20 mins or its greasy af
well that makes perfect sense...According to the state, mountain lions are extinct in NC, but it is illegal to shoot one.

Thanks. I see walmart has an 8MP tasco for $30. I'd prefer to buy from somewhere else (if not possible, i'll reassess), but at least now I know what to look for with a couple of people who have experience with them. A lot of the other ones I looked at, even more expensive ones, had terrible reviews.I’ve got a couple cheaper cameras I I picked up on the forum a while back and they work good for what I need. I think they’re the “Walmart brand “.
Although I admit I’d like to have a few like some of the other guys on here. A lot of the pictures on here are amazingly clear.

Skunk maybe?
What the heck is the ball of black round
I think its the 4glte transmission - I bet a higher res is stored on the card if I take my butt out there to look at it.You need a better camera.
