Bobcats have excellent eyesight and hearing. The bobcat can be found in all of the United States except for the midwest. It is also found in Canada and Mexico. The bobcat lives in a wide variety of habitats including forests, deserts, mountains, swamps, and farmland. They live in dens in a rock or tree crevice.
Bobcats are primarily nocturnal.
They do most of their hunting at night. The bobcat is a carnivore and eats a wide variety of small mammals like woodchucks, rabbits, skunks, raccoons, moles, and squirrels. It also eats birds and reptiles. One of the most common prey of the bobcat is the cotton-tail rabbit. Occasionally the bobcat will kill larger prey like deer.
