According to the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection, bobcats are listed as endangered in the state. While their population appears to be rebounding, sightings of the elusive cats remain relatively uncommon in the wild.
Residents can report bobcat sightings through the New Jersey Wildlife Tracker application, which helps researchers better understand the state's bobcat population.
