Bobcats are preyed upon by by cougars, coyotes, wolves , owls, and people. Bobcats have a life span of 10-14 years. The bobcats and the lynx are closely related. The Bobcat has powerful jaws and long, pointed canine teeth. It has sharp, retractable claws, big ears, and a spotted coat.
Many bobcats have long tufts of hair at the tip of the ears that improve the cat's hearing.
The brown eyes have circular pupils. This is what this cat is named for. Bobcats stalk their prey, and then pounce onto it. They can often kill their prey in one powerful bite. Without our visitors' support, Enchanted Learning would soon be off-line.
