Yes, that's what happens when someone doesn't fix a leak, thinking they can just put more fluid in it when it gets low, but winding up starving the pump and causing irreparable damage, necessitating replacement.

Finally, an update - it was a bad hydraulic pump. I replaced it and the Bobcat lives again. Thanks to everyone that helped out!
