What wild cats are in Indiana?

In Indiana, the primary wild cat species is the bobcat, which is relatively common and can be found in various habitats throughout the state. Historically, the eastern cougar was native to the region, but it has been extirpated from Indiana. While there have been occasional unconfirmed sightings of cougars, they are not considered a resident species. The state's focus remains on the conservation and management of the bobcat population.
