The bobcat (Lynx rufus) is a North American mammal of the cat family Felidae that appeared during the Irvingtonian stage of around 1.8 million years ago (AEO).Containing 12 recognized subspecies, it ranges from southern Canada to central Mexico, including most of the continental United States.he bobcat's range does not seem to be limited by human populations, as long as it can find a suitable habitat; only large, intensively cultivated tracts are unsuitable for the species. The animal may appear in back yards in urban edge environments, where human development intersects with natural habitats.
