DNR Considers Allowing More Counties to Hunt Bobcats
An increase in the bobcat population in Eastern Iowa has prompted DNR officials to consider adding three more Iowa counties to the state s legal harvest zone for the animals, according to the Telegraph Herald. Those three counties are Delaware, Dubuque, and Jones counties.
It s hard to argue the Iowa s bobcat population is on the rise. We ve featured several stories about bobcat sightings on our website. The cats were once thought to be all but extinct from the state. That clearly is no longer the case. A biologist for the DNR told the Herald that bobcats were once a protected species in the state, with very few animals left in Iowa. But their population has soared expanding from the south, now up through Iowa.
