WORCESTER, MA — There's been another bobcat sighting in Worcester. It was at the same home where one was seen last weekend, but this time the big predatory cat came back during the daytime.

The video was taken on Jan. 15 and posted via the Neighbors App. The previous video from the home showed a bobcat running beneath the porch at around 4 a.m. on Jan. 11.

Bobcats — not to be confused with mountain lions, which experts say don't live in Massachusetts — are not really a threat to humans, but they will hunt small livestock and pets. Bobcat breeding season also starts soon, so it's possible you'll see more of them outdoors.
