Bay Area man did not break the law while eating the bobcat. Killing it is what is considered illegal.
Santa Clara county authorities arrested a 38-year-old man in an unincorporated area of Morgan Hill, Calif. on Nov. 7, after he was allegedly discovered to be high on meth, owning cockfighting tools, and skinning then eating a bobcat.
Henry Arnibal was arrested on Sleepy Valley Road, and stated he'd killed the bobcat with a .22 rifle, and then ate it, after it attacked his roosters, reports the Merc.
While it is not illegal to eat bobcat, it is illegal to kill one without a proper permit.
The carcass of the bobcat was found hanging on a fence.
