Only in Arizona: Bobcats clinging to a saguaro cactus caught on camera

Mindy King was enjoying a hike with her dad earlier this week in Apache Junction, Arizona, when they spotted a rare sight: two bobcats clung to the side of a saguaro cactus. 

King and her dad on the morning of Sept. 16 were on a trail near Goldfield Mountains when they stumbled upon the bobcats. They both stood in awe for several minutes and snapped some photos as the cats nestled into one of the arms of the cactus. 

“At first, obviously, it was exciting to see them but then I kind of realized, ‘Oh, they’re up there for a reason,’ ” King told The Arizona Republic, which is part of the USA TODAY Network. “So then it was like, ‘OK, maybe we should move along.'”
