There is no easy answer to the loss of wilderness. Of the three cats, the bobcat seems to have the best future. It can live in the wilderness or near ranches and houses. It can eat anything. It is the great survivor.
Most lynx live in the remote regions of Canada and Alaska.
Until this area is developed, the lynx should survive. The cougar like other bid predators is more at risk. It used to live everywhere in the United States of America, but lives mainly in the Rocky Mountains and the western deserts. It is simply too big to go unnoticed. I learned the differences and similarities between these cats.
