Lynxes and Bobcats are separate species. They are not the same thing. https://animals.howstuffworks.com/mammals/bobcat-vs-lynx.htm#:~:text=Take%20the%20bobcat%20and%20lynx,and%20a%20short%2C%20bobbed%20tail.
Thanks for the feedback but 'Lynx' is a genus of cat with four spiecies in it, the Canada Lynx, Eurasian Lynx, Iberian Lynx, and Bobcat.
So a bobcat is a different species to, say, the Canada Lynx, but it also is a lynx just without 'Lynx' in its name. Although it is also called the Red Lynx.😊
If you aren't sure about something I would look it up on wikipedia.
FYI: A lot of these aren't "Big Cats". Big cats are largely defined as any cat that cannot purr and can roar. The puma is the largest "Small cat" and the leopard is the smallest "big cat". big cats aren't just any wild cat.
