Definition
Plural of bobcat; small wild cats native to North America with spotted fur and short tails, known for their fierce hunting abilities.
Etymology
From 'bob' (short tail) + 'cat'; the term emerged in American English in the 1800s, named for the animal's distinctively bobbed or short tail that appears cut off.
Kelly Says
Bobcats are incredibly adaptable hunters found from Canada to Mexico, and they're one of the few wild cats that actually thrive near human cities—they're secret neighbors we rarely see because they're mostly nocturnal and incredibly stealthy.
