Living with Wildlife: Bobcats

Bobcats get their name from their short “bobbed” tail, which is often less than six inches long. These spotted felines are common throughout Florida and typically weigh between 12 and 28 pounds. Help keep bobcats wild and reduce conflicts by following these tips: • Secure attractants like garbage and pet food and avoid directly feeding wildlife, • Never leave small pets unsupervised outdoors and always walk dogs on a short leash, • Be sure to properly pen small livestock like chickens. Bobcats are usually elusive and not aggressive toward people. If you’re concerned about a bobcat in your yard, try to startle it away, or haze it. Yelling and waving your arms or using an air horn can be effective. If you are experiencing conflicts with bobcats, contact your FWC regional office. https://myfwc.com/contact/fwc-office/ More info: https://myfwc.com/conservation/you-co...
