🐱Lynx
Genus of medium-sized wild cats
Did you know?
The lynx's huge, fur-padded paws act like natural snowshoes, spreading its weight so it can chase hares across deep snow.
A lynx ( links; pl.: lynx or lynxes) is any of the four extant species (the Canada lynx, Iberian lynx, Eurasian lynx and the bobcat) within the medium-sized wild cat genus Lynx. The name originated in Middle English via Latin from the Greek word lynx (λύγξ), derived from the Indo-European root *leuk- ('light', 'brightness'), in reference to the luminescence of its reflective eyes.
