Jennifer Kuroda of the Illinois Bobcat Foundation will be speaking about bobcats, the only native cat of Illinois. Bobcats, named for their short, bobbed tail, are about twice the size of a common house cat. They use their keen sight and hearing to hunt rabbits, squirrels, small rodents and some birds. They are nocturnal, reclusive animals that prefer forested or wooded areas (illinoisbobcat.org).
The presentation will be upstairs at McGonigal’s Pub, 105 S. Cook Street, Barrington, Illlinois.
