bobcat hunting

An overwhelming majority opposed the idea entirely or wanted the DNR to lower the quota of bobcats from 250 a year to 50 a year.

Proposed rule changes would limit the season to 40 southern Indiana counties, include a bag limit of one per trapper, and a statewide quota of 250 bobcats.

Bobcats were taken off the Indiana endangered species list in 2005. Now, the SB 241's author, Sen. Scott Baldwin (R-Noblesville) said they could be growing out of control.
