## Caption

Bobcats have begun to rebound in Ohio — even in Northeast Ohio.

🐱 The creature’s populations are moving up across the state, as the creature expands from its typical Southeast Ohio range, and even works its way into the Cleveland Metroparks.

The park’s cameras picked up bobcats in 2021 and 2022, marking some of their first sightings in Cuyahoga County and Ohio since the 1800s, says Cleveland Metroparks Wildlife Ecologist Jonathon Cepek. “Seeing bobcats in more and more counties just says that the population is healthy,” he says.
