Published in Cats & Dogs News

(UPI) A Florida woman captured video of a backyard fight between a mother raccoon and a bobcat that came too close to her habitat.

Erinn Earth captured video in her Manatee County back yard of what began as a tense stare-down between the raccoon and the bobcat.

The video, which Earth posted to YouTube, shows the standoff eventually turn into a fight that ended with the bobcat fleeing the area.

 

"The raccoon has babies in the wooded area, so I think she was trying to protect her babies from the bobcat," Earth told WWSB-TV.
