Yeah, snow leopards and clouded leopards are definitely not leopards. Snow leopards are most closely related to tigers, and clouded leopards belong to a whole different genus. Somebody should invent new names for them.

I didn't know jaguars are considered American cats, and have been sighted in Arizona! Cool quiz!

I'm sad the ocelot didn't make it.

Yeah, I was sad about that too. I cut the list off at the top 9 because the 10th would have been another species of clouded leopard and I felt that one clouded leopard was enough. 11th and 12th were the caracal and the serval, which I felt were too obscure to add much fun to the quiz.

All the leopards should just be classified under leopard.. otherwise bobcat should have its own.. and mountain lion.. and housecat.. see where I'm going with this..

I was sad about servals and caracal not on there, there should be a quiz with all the wild cats on it.

When I was researching this quiz, I discovered that a lot of wild cat species have really boring names. For example, the "asian golden cat", "african golden cat", and "fishing cat" are all in the same approximate size range as servals, caracals, and ocelots. That's what led me to go with just the largest ones instead.

I had no idea jaguars weighed that much...there is still hope for my rock climbing career, I suppose.

What about Bobcat?

Bobcats are significantly smaller than Eurasian Lynxes; the largest are only about 18 kg.
