In early January 2024 Mario Angeles video'd these two lynx near Silverton, Colorado. That is a special moment, all right. Between native populations and (mainly) reintroduction, Colorao's lynx population is estimated at only 150 and 250 animals.
This is good bobcat habitat though, rocky and brushy, but you do not see them very often.
Just for comparison, here is a young bobcat living large at the wildlife rehabilitation center in Custer County, due to be released when the weather warms.

We had one in the backyard about a month ago.
I used to see a bobcat pretty regularly crossing Woodmen Road in the Springs. This was between I-25 and Academy Blvd, late at night. I think it lived north of the road, crossing to the south side to hunt the plentiful rabbits on the Current property. I assume it was a female, one night it was accompanied by a kit. Woodmen is a very busy road in the daytime, but traffic is very light late at night.
