Bobcats are solitary hunters that prey mostly on small mammals such as rabbits and rodents, although they will also eat birds and even large animals like the white-tailed deer.
Bobcats have binocular vision, which enables them to focus on swiftly running prey. Their pupils expand to take in all available light, making them extremely effective night hunters.
Sharp claws that assist in climbing are retractable, allowing the bobcat to approach their prey more quietly. They can stalk to within a few feet of their intended prey and then make a short dash or pounce. Bobcats have compact skulls, fewer teeth and shortened jaws, coupled with long canine teeth. This provides them with tremendous biting pressure that can kill their prey in one bite.
Bobcats begin breeding at one year of age, usually in late winter or early spring. Two to four kittens are born after a gestation period of about 62 days.
