The Bobcat: A Master of Adaptation

The bobcat, or Lynx rufus, is a medium-sized wild cat native to North America. Known for its agility and adaptability, the bobcat thrives in diverse habitats, from forests to deserts. Reserves protect these elusive hunters by ensuring they have access to prey and undisturbed territories.

Visitors to reserves may catch a glimpse of a bobcat stealthily stalking prey or basking in the sun. Educational programs often highlight their crucial role in maintaining healthy ecosystems by controlling rodent populations.
