WESTFORD (CBS) – Westford residents have spotted elusive bobcats several times in the past week. Bill Azer recorded two of the wild cats roaming through his property this past week, and one of them appeared to have a squirrel in its mouth. “We’ve seen some deer out here before. I know some neighbors have seen some bears, but I haven’t seen bobcats.”

A few miles away, Dawn Gillogly’s security camera spotted a bobcat in her driveway as it appeared to be chasing something under her car.
