bobcats
Short-tailed felines
Bobcats are wild cats native to North America, named for their short, bobbed tails.
Smaller than lynxes but larger than housecats, they're adaptable predators found from Canadian forests to Mexican deserts.
A bobcat was spotted near the hiking trail.
The term also refers to a brand of compact construction equipment: We rented a Bobcat to grade the driveway.
