Bobcats are important creatures because they reduce the spread of diseases by preying on small rodents that easily transmit pathogens. Self-governing, they make their own choices and decisions. Wildcats teach us by example to take control of our lives by making good choices that align with our values and aspirations. Robert Michael Weahkee's turquoise-eyed Bobcat is carved from burnished antler with a wonderful bobbed tail. A tiny offering necklace has choice lemon quartz and Dalmatian jasper beads. About 2 5/8" tall, 1 1/2" wide and 1 5/8" deep.
