A man in a suburban neighborhood sprung into action, grabbed an aggressive bobcat, and threw it across his lawn after the animal attacked his wife.
The footage, which appeared to be captured on a home security camera, showed the man saying “good morning” to a neighbor and remarking that he needed to wash his car before a shriek and a growl can be heard. Within seconds, a bobcat attacks the man’s wife, who is carrying a pet cage, as she yells for her husband, “Rodney! Rodney!”
More shouting can be heard before the man hoists the wild animal above his head and says, “Oh my god. It’s a bobcat!” at a passerby. He then chucks the angry cat across his lawn, but the animal recovers and runs straight toward Rodney’s wife as he yells, “Lindsey!” to alert her of another assault.

The man pulled out a handgun amid the struggle and ran after the animal.
“I will shoot that f—–!” he said.
“Watch out,” he told a bystander. “There’s a bobcat. Attacked my wife.”
The viral video was widely shared on social media, but it is unclear when or where this incident happened and if the family involved was injured.
