They have them in Fairfax County. One was spotted at my office building near 395 and Edsall Rd last year. At first they thought it was an exotic cat that had gotten loose but Fairfax Co wildlife staff reviewed the security tapes (yes, it was caught on tape) and said it was a bobcat. It was about as tall as a bumper on an SUV.

Great! Maybe he'll attack the Southern douche and his 'associates' .

Maybe the residents needs their gigantic SUVs after all. It does seem they're (practically) on safari.

It was only a matter of time.

Quasimodo predicted all of this.

PoP commenters seem to say probably a bobcat. (I don't actually know wtf a bobcat is, though). You all remember the bear sighting last year on a security camera in from a Chevy Chase apartment building?

It was in the Huffington Post. This is real folks.

Same thing.

This is BS. Pic or it didn't happen.

I understood it was a cougar....

Not the first time, kids. I grew up over that way. It happens every now and then.

Messed up, though.

Yikes is right! I prefer to see lions running in the wild on TV not in person. Big yikes!

Yikes! I've lived in GP for 15 years and I've seen many deer, opossum, rabbits, and even a fox. But a mountain lion? OMG. I live right across from Glover Archbold park.
