My favorite animal is the Jaguar. Its like a mini tiger, with the ferocity of a lion, probably the most powerful big cat in the world on a pound for pound basis. Stunningly beautiful, like an even more beautiful version of a tiger - I just love them. But ask me tomorrow and perhaps my faveorite animal is the Tiger. It changes between those two, its usually the Jaguar though.

Leopards are my favorite. They can live alongside humans, larger predators and pack predators and still thrive. They are among the best athlets and physically gifted. They are versatile. They have a high power to weight ratio and can defend themselves against just about any land predator they come across. And they don't need help from anyone to do what they do. They are the most underrated bigcat.

I've never confused mountain lions with bob cats. It's bob cats and lynx that are hard to tell apart.

Bobcats are also known as red lynx. It’s weird as we have a black bobcat in the front yard and puma have a path through our side yard. Both can take down a deer.

There's a few ways to tell a Bobcat from a Lynx 1. Size: Some confusion is height, Lynx are slightly taller than a Bobcat, both being around 2 feet tall, but the Lynx can be twice as heavy, usually around 30-60 pounds while Bobcats are 15-30 pounds max. 2. Cheek Fur: Lynxes fur on their cheeks come to a straight point, sometimes curving away from it face, while the Bobcats cheek Fur tend to curve around it's face. 3. Coat patterns: Lynxes coat come in a tan to silvery plain color, while Bobcats coats comes in silvery, tan and brown and spotted. (This is the easiest way to tell them apart) Spots, Bobcat. No spots, Lynx. 4. Ear tufts: Lynxes ear tufts are more prominent and longer, even as a kitten. Bobcat ear tufts are short, almost unnoticeable until up close and don't appear until adulthood 5. Tail: Lynxes tails are usually black tipped and a little shorter while Bobcat tails, slightly longer come in black, but with a white tipped end. 6. Legs and paws: Bobcats have smaller paws and longer legs, Lynx has big furry paws, long front legs and short back legs. Hopefully this helps. This is a comparison of the American Bobcat and Canadian Lynx.

😂 I wouldn’t worry about all the scientific terms and “if I really scared off a cougar with bobcat and/or mountain Lion KZread tips” because you’d be a fool.
I had a large cat in my yard one morning it was not a bobcat or mountain lion. It's body looked like an african serval cat with a large trunk, long neck and small head but the color was solid gray with a white chest and the tail was long like a mountain lions. I've always thought it was either a bobcat mountain lion cross or an escaped serval cross that someone's pet.

Oregon: Saw what I thought was a stray cat on the trail. I started talking to it, finally realized it was a bobcat when it got up and left LoL it let me talk to it but it didn't talk back. Am really wondering if it crossed with a stray house cat though. I have seen bobcat before that were unmistakable one was pretty darn big and majestic. Also saw a cougar a couple miles from there walked up the road towards the car looking right into my eyes when I fumbled the door handle it took off. Also ran across bear around there. Amazing creatures. They're right to be scared of people. ✌️

Hey Paul! Thanks for sharing. I’ve only come across a cougar once here in Texas. Awesome animals. 🐾
The difference is when you see a bobcat in the wild you say to yourself "wow, cool!!!!". When you see a cougar in the wild you say ,"hail mary full of grace...." Of course that is in the off chance you saw the cougar coming.

As a human, you ABSOLUTELY don't cross a Moutain Lion. But you have to work pretty damn hard to have a Bobcat EVER bother with you. I mean, like, literally grab it. They have ZERO interest in humans. Consider it your lucky day when you see one. Saying goes, if you see one, it's because it let you. Amazing animal.

Some Bobcats can get big, but don't get much bigger than 30 pounds, A Canadian Lynx can get up to 70 pounds. If it had a spotted coat, it was a Bobcat, if not it's a Lynx.

A healthy human being will pretty much always be able to overpower a bobcat......a human vs a big and aggressive Mountain Lion (individuals DO vary)......thats gonna be a BAD day for the human being - if it actually attacks, I think youd be pretty lucky to survive it and in a pretty bad way if you DID survive. Edit: If anyone is wondering why you compare these two seemingly quite different cats, I cant speak for the uploader, but I would imagine its because of the shared distribution/territory.

No mention of which one is probably wiser. Also, no mention on if we can call them "Bobcats" if we haven't been formally introduced. Should we call them "Robert-cats" until then? Also, also, can a Canadian Lynx successfully mate with a Eurasian Lynx, and produce viable off-spring?

Until my kitty gets there
Lions, buffalo, and antelope are all found only in both Africa and Asia, therefore it is actually misleadingly incorrect to call a puma a mountain lion, misleadingly incorrect to call a bison a buffalo, and misleadingly incorrect to call a pronghorn an antelope, the Puma (Puma concolor) is actually more closely related to cheetahs (genus Acinonyx) and the jaguarundi (Herpailurus yagouaroundi), bison (genus Bison) are a genus of true cattle (subtribe Bovina) with the closest living relative of both the European Bison (Bison bonasus) and the American Bison (Bison bison) being the Yak (Poephagus grunniens), while buffalo are an entirely distinct subtribe (Bubalina) from the true cattle (subtribe Bovina), and the word "antelope" refers correctly and exclusively to the taxa Tetracerus, Tragelaphini, Hippotraginae, Peleinae, Reduncinae, Antilopinae, Cephalophinae, and Neotraginae of the family Bovidae, while the Pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) is the sole extant member of a separate family known as Antilocapridae, which is actually more closely related to giraffids than to bovids, making the giraffes (genus Giraffa), Okapi (Okapia johnstoni), and Pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) the only extant members of the broader superfamily Giraffoidea.

The reason its called a mountain lion is because they resemble a female lion. Other animals are named for not being that animal but resemble them, such as a Flying Fox, Rhinoceros Beetle, Leopard Frog, Bat Falcon so on so forth
