Bobcats

By Josephine

Bobcats live in many different places, like fallen or hollow trees. They also live in caves or holes. There isn't a certain home they live in. They are also located in Canada, Mexico, America, and deserts and forests.  Bobcats eat in their homes or outside.

Bobcats eat lots of things such as rabbits, hares, deer, squirrels, mice, and animals along with different fish. They also eat rats, other rodents, and river otters. They definitely do not eat plants. Baby bobcats eat mushy food till they are a couple months. Then they eat the meat that the mother bobcat gets.

Bobcats live up to at least be 10 or 12 years old. The points on their ears help them hear better. By the way, they do not carry diseases. Bobcats can grow up to be 13-30 pounds! They have striped obern fur, and they are fluffy around the head.

Bobcats usually hunt at night or in the afternoon. To scare predators they make a hiss or a light  roar sound.  They have up to 4-6 babies. To protect themselves they blend in with nature and then they jump out and eat their prey.

People, wolves, and coyotes kill them. The predator probably either jumps out and kills them, or the people shoot them. I think that other animals might be afraid of them.
