The bobcat is related to the lynx, but half the size. The Canada lynx has longer fur, is paler in color, and has wider paws than the bobcat. The tufts on the ears of a lynx is longer than the tufts of a bobcat's ears. The bobcat has spots that are noticed easily, while the lynx's spots are hard to see. The bobcat's range is limited to North America, while the lynx ranges throughout Eurasia, the Iberian Peninsula, and North America.
