Canadian lynx

The Canadian lynx (Lynx Canadensis), also known as the Canada lynx or North American lynx, is a North American lynx species that is native to Canada and Alaska, as well as some parts of the Northern United States. It is twice the size of a domestic cat. Like the snowshoe hare, the lynx can maneuver through the deep snow with its snowshoe-like paws. The Canadian lynx resembles the other species of the lynx genus and has tufted ears. Like the Eurasian lynx, the Canadian lynx is near threatened, while the Bobcat is least concern, and the Iberian lynx is critically endangered. The Issoire lynx is extinct, and all lynx species were descended from the Issoire lynx. The 3 Canadian lynx subspecies are the Canadian, Alaskan, and Newfoundland. The Newfoundland lynx is larger than its mainland relatives. Since lynxes are cold climate loving cats, I guess when I crow up, I can test to see if 1 Canadian lynx can survive in Greenland. The Eurasian lynx is the largest of all the lynxes and is the size of a medium-sized dog. Canadian lynxes and Bobcats can both be seen in the Northern part of my home state, Wisconsin. They also coexist in Yellowstone national park in Wyoming. Their populations overlap in the Northern United States and Southern Canada.
