MCALLEN, Texas (ValleyCentral) — A bobcat found in a McAllen neighborhood was euthanized because officials say it was a danger to residents and their pets. Texas Parks and Wildlife Game Warden put down the large bobcat on Saturday. McAllen City Manager Roel Rodriguez said the bobcat was spotted in a central McAllen neighborhood when a resident saw birds suddenly fly away and then spotted the animal in one of his trees. Rodriguez said attempts to capture the bobcat with a trap were unsuccessful.
