Bobcats can be found in many parts of southern Canada, and throughout most of the United States except for parts of the midwest. They are also located in northern Mexico. Bobcats have an ability to surive in a variety of habitats. Bobcats can be found in mountainous regions, woodlands, deserts, swamps, wetlands and coastal areas. Just as bobcats must be able to survive in a variety of habitats, they must be able to eat a variety of different food. Bobcats will prey on rabbits, mice, squirrels and other small mammals. Bobcats may also sometimes eat larger animals. Bobcats can be 2 - 3.5 feet in length and weigh 20 - 30 pounds. Bobcats have thick, fur coats that can be gray, red or brown, depending on where they live. Their coats are covered in spots that are sometimes more apparent on their legs than on their backs.
