lynx - felis lynx - eurasian lynx #04

A lynx is any of four medium-sized wild cats. The Lynx is easily recognized for their tuft of hair at the tip of each ear at least one inch in length or longer. These ear tufts help them in securing their wild prey unannounced. One unusual physical feature common in the all the Lynx species is their short, stubby tail which is black at the tip. Unlike our other felines, where the tail is used for balance and comprises as much as 1/3 of their body length. The Lynxes' tails measures a mere 4" to 12" at most.
Lynxes prey on hares, rabbits, rodents, wild boar, chamois, foxes, roe deer and reindeer.
