bay lynx

In the United States, what is commonly called a wildcat is really a species of lynx—the bay lynx—often called bobcat.

We have already mentioned the bay lynx of the United States, which in size is equal to the Canada lynx.

Wildcats, or bobcats as they are sometimes called, being also known as the bay lynx, are not as large as a good-sized dog.

The fur of the Bay Lynx is not as valuable as that of the northern lynx.

Accordingly I was compelled reluctantly to assign the den to the more commonplace bay-lynx, better known as the wild-cat.
