Ohio Bobcats Logo PNG
Ohio University in Athens, Ohio, has used the same athletic logo since at least 1999. The emblem was inspired by the name of the athletic program.
Meaning and history
The Ohio Bobcats logo consists of two parts. On the forefront, there is a stylized depiction of a cat, while on the background, the word “OHIO” can be seen.
The creature depicted on the logo is officially called the “Attack Cat.” It is a trademark of Ohio Intercollegiate Athletics. The cat’s mouth is open, and you can clearly see the sharp fangs. This helps to add the menacing and aggressive feel, which is considered necessary for a successful athletic logo.
In addition to the primary Ohio Bobcats logo, the university also used a so-called paw emblem. However, it is now considered a historic logo and is not recommended for use as the university’s athletic signature.
