I have a few questions, it's for a school project! I hope someone can help me!? I was wondering how do they travel? Like, in packs or alone, or what? Alexa Meadows

I'm not really sure, but I believe they generally are solitary animals. Also, they are quite shy.
It's true; lynx have trouble getting dates.


Do they conduct their behaviour appropriately in pacts or are they independent animals that find that to mate is a challenge in such isolated environments?

Colleagues, don't you have a photo of a living Scandinavian lynx? A stuffed one looks ugly and miserable.

Yes, it does. I bet someone has, but a wild lynx is one of the thoughest mammals to get a good photo, since she doesn't eat (mostly) anything she hasn't killed. Only good photos of wild animals I've seen are taken on the den. A picture request might be in order. 88.195.46.112 07:12, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lynx Grammar

Question regarding the article's grammar: In several places in the "Status" section the author uses "lynxes" as a plural. I thought the plural was simply "lynx." In other places, for instance in the status of the lynx in Norway, the author uses such phrases as "Lynx was" and "Lynx is." I am assuming this should be "Lynx were" and "Lynx are," but I wanted to get a consensus before editing. --12.154.39.254 18:58, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Both "lynx" and "lynxes" are correct for the plural.[1] - UtherSRG (talk) 19:33, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
