OK.. I had to check on these... I never doubted the bobcat is a relatively common wild animal in North America but I wasn't too sure about the tigers in Detroit...
Detroit Tigers:
In the 19th century, the city of Detroit had a military unit called the Detroit Light Guard, who were known as "The Tigers". They had played significant roles in certain Civil War battles and in the 1899 Spanish-American War.
Charlotte Bobcats:
Named after the animal that is commonly found in North Carolina and is known for being sleek and athletic.
...just for curiosity sake...
