Humans causing habit loss is blamed for the bulk of the bobcat's endangerment. New Jersey is taking steps to locate, trap, collar, and track bobcats in their effort to prevent extirpation. In Mexico, they are still trapped for their pelts and for the protection of livestock.

As a species, the bobcat, Lynx Rufus, is not an endangered species, but is listed as "Least Concern " by the IUCN. There has been decline in some local populations, as shown above, but overall, the bobcat is in little danger of extinction.
