  • At this time they are just starting to bed down for the night.   In a hundred mile radius?   Shoot. I don't know   A lot. They are pretty damn common.   I've trapped a few in my time.

  • I know that there are three that patrol the area immediately around me.   There's also some odd lynx here and there.

  • NY.   Lynx aren't common.   Sometimes a few cross over the frozen river once in awhile.   You see them on the ice if you're lucky.

    Unless there are some at the Honolulu Zoo or in some rich eccentric person's exotic pet collection, the most likely answer is none.

    None.  They are nocturnal and it is nighttime here right now. How many live within that range? There are probably over 2500 that live in that radius. I live near a lot of protected wood and wetlands. I have even seen one about a half mile from my house.

    They are everywhere here.  They can be seen walking down the sidewalk sometimes.  There was one on a roof a block away from here not long ago.  People don't like them because they will eat pets.  No reports of them bothering people including children.  I believe a child would engage a bobcat unaware that it might be a danger to him or her.  Back home we had mountain lions, a cousin to bobcats.  They were much more scary.

    Nope.  They are game animals here too.  The article says black bobcats have been seen here but I've not seen or heard anyone say they have seen the black ones.

  • In round figures, none. But there are quite a lot of kangaroos and more than enough wombats.

  • Eating your corn is the least of it. When they cross the road at night they're a traffic hazard. It's like running into a tank.
