The
lynx (Lynx lynx) is a medium size light grey cat mottled with blackish brown hairs. It has a short tail tipped with black and black ear tufts. The male is larger than the female, about 40 inches long and 4 feet tall. These are solitary creatures, only coming together to mate.
These cats mate in the spring and the young are born between April and June. The gestation period is about 65 days. Kittens remain with their mother for the first winter. They are weaned at about three months.
The lynx's range is throughout much of Canada, Alaska and sparsely in the northern tier of the United States. It is adequately equipped for hunting in its range, large feet for swimming and stalking through snow, mostly going after the snowshoe hare, but also stalking birds and voles. The lynx will also eat the remains of the kill of other larger animals. It will climb trees and wait for passing prey to pounce upon.
Predators of the lynx are wolves, mountain lions and man.
These cats are generally silent but will shriek or scream during the mating season.
