Their color and weight will differ depending on where the bobcats live and what they eat. Bobcats also have good eye sight and smell for hunting. They have large retractable claws. They also have spots on their coats for camouflage. The bobcats' natural habitat is in the northeastern, central and southern USA, British Columbia and Mexico.
Females have less range then males.
They roam freely at night and are frequently abroad during the day, except in summer. The bobcat is similar to a house cat. Two months after mating, two to six kittens are born helpless and blind. Kittens will stay with their mother for 10 to 12 months. They learn how to kill their own food when the mother brings live food to the den to catch and eat.
