The Bobcat is an astonishing feline. A highly adaptable wildcat of North America, the Bobcat has managed to survive in healthy numbers in a variety of habitats, consuming a diverse spectrum of prey, in both wild and occupied regions. Classified in the Lynx genus, the Bobcat (Lynx Rufus) is considered generally a more successful hunter than the Canadian Lynx, and is perhaps the best mid sized marauder in the continent. The size among subspecies is generally subject to terrain, with Bobcats in open.
Different other lynx cats, the Bobcat tail have a white underside with a black stubby tip distinguishing the cat. Despite being a small cat, Bobcat is quite muscular and its strong, proportionately long, hind legs facilitate it to generate tremendous bounds of speed, reaching up to 30mph. Twice as big as a house cat, the Bobcat weighs between fifteen to thirty pounds and are typically three to four feet long. Males are generally larger.
With their keen senses, excessive agility and surprising strength, Bobcats make great hunters able to take down animals three times their size. The prey Bobcats of this opportunistic wily hunter includes insects, rodents, birds, fish, squirrels, rabbits and even deer! At times it may quarry even on foxes, small dogs and house cats. The usual hunting technique is to stalk the Bobcat and allow it to come within twenty to thirty feet as the cat lays crouching in wait. In case of large prey animal, Bobcat covers it with leaves or debris to return to it over the subsequently couple of days and feed. Despite its cute look, the Bobcat is a very fierce animal and is capable of generating frightening growls and snarls deceptive many to believe its sounds as those of a mountain lion. Solitary as most cats, Bobcats come together during mating.
