Did the sign say "Florida Bobcat" because I know at least one of their three animals is not a Florida bobcat?

Did the sign say "Florida Bobcat" because I know at least one of their three animals is not a Florida bobcat?

I looked at the signage photos I have on my computer and it did not say subspecies status. I don't remember why I wrote it on list, its probably a mistake or it could be from some other info I forgot about. Looking through my saved photos though, I can confirm the black bear is signed as ssp floridanus and also the deer is signed as "Odocoileus seminolus" and the Sandhill Cranes are ssp. pratensis..... though the validity of most of these Florida subspecies has become very doubtful so it probably doesn't make a difference.
