After coming across a bobcat near a neighborhood close to Bear Canyon and East Tanque Verde Road, Marc Hammond with Animal Experts, Inc. took her to a more remote area where she could live freely, without humans around.

But that process wasn't the easiest.

First, Hammond was able to get the bobcat into a wire crate, which was used as an initial trap. From there, he had to transfer her from the trap to a carrier.

The bobcat definitely wasn't happy in the moment, but Hammond was able to successfully get her into the new carrier in less than five minutes — with no injuries to the bobcat and only a few scratches to him.

And, if you happen to spot wildlife such as coyotes, venomous snakes and bobcats, Animal Experts, Inc. says you can give them a ring at 531-1020 to learn how you can keep your pets safe.
