*** About Canada Lynxes: The Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) is a North American wildcat that thrives in forested areas and is known for its distinctive ear tufts and large paws that act like snowshoes in winter conditions. Predominantly solitary animals, lynxes are primarily nocturnal and maintain territories that can vary extensively in size based on food availability and environmental factors. Their diet mainly consists of snowshoe hares, making their population cycles closely tied to the abundance of these prey animals. The survival of the Canada lynx is indicative of the health of the boreal forest ecosystem, which is increasingly threatened by habitat loss and the impacts of climate change.
