Now due to the fact that it’s easier to write about the about the animal than the food. So I’m publishing them separately.
If you remember my first blog post (go read it if you haven’t already.) I wrote about the Caracal I am now writing about it’s Canadian cousin the (Canadian) lynx.
These medium- sized felines are both predator and prey. Although they are vicious (but cute all the same) they are prey for both wolves and coyotes.
They live in Canada and a bit of the u.s. probably a few are in Yellowstone park. the habitat you’ll most likely find them in is a boreal forest with den under a fallen tree.
the diet is small rodents snowshoe hare and sometimes even caribou. The lynx population is based on how many snowshoe hare are around.
after mating the females are usually 4 months pregnant and the usual amount of kittens in a litter is 2-4 but can up to 8.
They mature depending on they’re gender a female kitten with a lot of prey around, can mature within a year. but a female without enough prey will mature within 2-3 years.
that is not a caracal kitten but it is a kitten .
because they (below)
- have snowshoe like feet
- have grey fur Not black+white
- to have black tipped short tail
- they live in the wild not a 🏠
- they are much,much,much,much bigger.
the usual life (in the wild ) is fifteen years but in captivity they live for 25 years; but I would say that letting animals live in the wild is better then captivity.
Please leave a comment on which country you’d like me to write about next

Very informative story about lynx. I did not know they were so widespread. I would like to hear about Italy 🇮🇹
