In Lithuania I have seen a few lynxes going trough my garden, one even had courage to snatch a chicken of mine while I was sitting on my porch. I didn't do anything, I let it happen, poor Lynx had kittens not far from my home, so I felt for her. These are really cool animals, one of my favorites.
The Eurasian lynx is bigger than the Canadian lynx and will prey on large game, such as deer. They also eat smaller animals, such as rodents and birds. The Eurasian Lynx is found in deciduous and mixed forests in Europe and Russia; open wooded regions and semi-deserts in Central Asia; thick scrub and barren rocky areas on the northern slopes of the Himalayas and even up the Arctic tundra in northern latitudes.
Brian J. Carnevale Believe it or not even a Canadian Lynx will occasionally prey on deer and other large species. It is not as common, but it has been documented on multiple occasions.
Oh, yes. Europe and North America share a lot of the same animals, like brown bears and gray wolves, but there are no cougars here, so lynx are the biggest cat around and fill up the role of feline apex predators, with the only other native feline being the wildcat, which is still twice as big as a housecat. The Eurasian lynx hunts large ungulates like deer and has been known to kill fully grown wolves.
@@daliborjovanovic510 Not twice as big... more like a strong and sturdy version of a domestic cat (and there are not so few non-pedigree domestic cats which can be confused with wildcats!). By the way, unlike lynxes, they are non-interested in humans and cannot be tamed at all... some years ago, I had encounter with a wildcat in an animal park, that cat was totally aloof and strictly avoided eye contact with me - while the Eurasian lynx in the other enclosure was pretty curious about human visitors (but feared men in black jackets, as I had to realize...)!
Lynx are my favourite animals.But i love fox too The largest species of eurasian lynx are siberian lynx! I can't believe how gentle and loving they were They're like huge kitty cats:)
Nice video and a wonderful rescue and breeding programme. Thank you for doing this! 👏 It is very important for this specie, because the Balkan Lynx went extinct during last few decades.
ZENA is one exceptional cat! You could do one channel showing your daily interaction with ZENA and have a huge number of subscribers. She has such a lovely disposition. You are so fortunate to have her. (I imagined ZENA as a "therapy cat" but thought you might take me seriously . . . still, I keep thinking of taking ZENA to a nursing home to visit seniors - but then I remembered some people are afraid of cats. Sorry for my dark humor but I've been laughing all day thinking of this. Can you imagine . . . ?)
The Eurasian ones are really pretty big cats. They are classified as medium sized wild cats, they strike me as being on the larger side of medium size to me. Pretty substantial. Big enough to make a human sh!t himself if he had to defend against one.

@@D12Min Yes, they do, kiddo XD The thing about wolves is that they are canines; gracile predators with non-retractable claws, so they really stand no chance in a one-on-one fight against a feline of comparable size.
@@daliborjovanovic510 yet there is not a simple example of a lynx killing a healthy full-sized wolf. "kiddo XD" I´m a a middle-aged man, so spare me the nonsense.
@@daliborjovanovic510 Everything correct, but a single point. The wildcat is'nt twice as big as a common housecat. It's exactly the same size. (Maine Coon is even bigger than a wildcat)
We have Eurasian lynxes in Sweden, they are really forest cats. Such pretty animals. Not sure why she said it's from Romania as most of northern Europe has lynxes, hence the name Eurasian lynx. The countries with the most significant populations of Eurasian lynx generally include: 1. Sweden: A strong population, especially in forested areas. 2. Finland: Home to a large and stable lynx population. 3. Estonia: Also has a healthy population, benefiting from its extensive forests. 4. Norway: Significant populations in the eastern and northern regions. 5. Poland: Hosts a growing population, especially in the Białowieża Forest. 6. Slovakia: Contains lynx in its mountainous regions. 7. Germany: Some populations are present, particularly in the Bavarian Forest.
being in canada ive chased a lynx and im pretty sure they thought i was playin, chased me a bit after i charged him. was definitely scary but was a once in a life time experience.
@neu-rot-ic psy-chot-ic No this animal will never be set free in the "wild". She was born in captivity and is an ambassador to her species helping to educate people on her species. She does not live in a house though, this video was made back stage to an educational show she was doing. With increasing pressure on wild populations, it is very important to have captive animals that can help to keep this species on our planet through captive breeding.
Actually, these cats along with severals make good pets and use litter boxes. They keep better tham bobcats. However, if you get one, get one from a breeder that has selectively bred them. It make a difference.
Yeah that's weird that that eurasian is that calm and social. We have a few of them, and while they like some scratches from the right person they're not like that lol. Especially my drax, he's the dominant Eurasian that we have and he's terrifying. But that's why I love him!!!
When my cat wants a game the way Zena does, it quickly ends up with shouting and bloodshed (mine!). I can't imagine how much a 'game' with Zena would cost you.
Great Job ! Eurasian's And Bobcats Can Make AWSOME Pets !! We've Had Our Lynx For 6 Wonderful Years - NEVER Allow Anyone To Keep You From Your Life, Liberty & Happiness
So then get one at 3 weeks old and raise it better then even in the wild ! And love it forever and always train train train," it to be a pet ! Even though it's not a pet ! Kind of like the tigers i saw being raised ! I Got it ! I work around animals too ! 😊💓!
Dont wish for that. These beautiful animals have no place with humans. They should be free. Buy yourself a cuddly toy if you are that desperate for ego boost.
Cow Palace? If it’s the place in San Francisco, The Allman Brothers played a concert with the Dead at the Cow Palace on New Years Eve 1973 and Owsley, the Grateful Dead’s “resident chemist”, secretly dosed the Allmans with LSD. The show was amazing, and a little bit of rock n roll history was born.
It is usually not a good idea for the vast majority of the population. There have been people who have been successful keeping wild cats, but that cat will dominate your life. You can no longer travel anywhere. You can not have any visitors or any other animals that the wild cat does not know and recognize as family. And even though they can be very affectionate, they can also be very moody. So you would need to become an expert on reading the cat's mood, and give them space on their terms to avoid possible serious injuries.
My fave animal. I've always loved the look of the Lynx. This one seems like such a sweetheart, I want her!!! It's crazy to think she actually could rip your face off in a few seconds if she wanted to tho...LOL
Eurasian lynx are about twice as big as those found in North America, the bobcat and the Canadian lynx. While the latter mainly prey on rabbits, hares, and rodents, Eurasian lynx fill a niche more akin to cougars, as they regularly take down deer and other ungulates, and have been known to kill adult wolves despite only being two-thirds their size. They are highly elusive and have never been documented attacking a human, even though they would be more than capable of killing one.
Don't think so. Assuming the same consumption of ernergy (at the same energy-efficiency on the same level of activity with the same amount of muscles), we can expect the same need of ernergy to be put in. pure physics.
The Lynx? They naturally have brighter fur around their eyes to help reflect light in, whilst in darker environments, as they're most active around dusk and dawn. It's actually where the name comes from - Lynx stems from a Greek word for light. Many cultures have historically represented them in mythology as being incredibly perceptive because of it.
Quote off the day(never have I seen a lynx act like this) most if not all act like this when born in captivity and raised with humans. Only wild lynx will run or hide from you.
What an absolutely beautiful animal too bad most of the times they aren't very affectionate and make the most evil sounding noises when they are mad. Lol
This Lynx is more of a domesticate cat than a wild Lynx now. She belongs with a family now for her safety and care. What makes an animal a good pet or not good should never be based upon their species but rather the individual personality of each animal. While one Lynx may not make a good pet, the next one could be awesome, preferring a domesticated life than to struggle and starve in the wild.
just to remind you, there are still people who enjoys hunting these animals for fun. Yeah. In Europe it is forbidden to hunt these animals, but if you go into any hunter's house you will always see a lynx remains showcased on a wall. People sicken me who do this.
I’d like to adopt one, but I have no experience with big cats. I live in Texas. Wish I could find a loving Lynx that doesn’t want to tear my arms off and break my fingers.
Omgwtfpwnd you can't because they are near extinction.There are only 50 individuals left in nature and they live in western Macedonia,Albania,Kosovo and Montenegro!
@@iliriandedvukaj8421 nope, they also live in Italy, southern France, Scandinavia, Turkey, Iran, the Caucasus, Russia, the Baltic seashore countries, China, Nepal, Kyrgyzstan

Lol , had the courage?? The animal hunts deer!
When you need a guard dog but are more of a cat person!
I love that comment!
She did mention that it hunts deer
And its a she, males are much bigger
It's gonna eat your average guard dog for lunch. Not sure if it's gonna defend you tho lol :))))

They look slimmer than the Canadian Lynx. Ever heard of the Lynx named Max? Big ball of fur that acts like a cuddle buddy.
Indeed 😍
I never seen a lynx but they are most beautiful cats. She looks friendly.
She looks like a huge house cat! So cute
This wild feline is friendlier than many "domestic" cats, lol.
arnauuu1 yhe me to they only been bred by humans for like 200 years lets do the same whith bobs and lynx 😹😹
My cat even ignored me calling them
What a gorgeous cat this lynx is I love cats
Romania's national animal, the beautifull lynx.
What a beautiful cat!
What adorable giant kitten
Get real. This is a wild animal and should be free. Another product of the Disney sentimentality.
Eurasian Lynx are absolute units. There are way bigger than the Canadian Lynx, not just a little bigger.
Yes i know they weigh on average from 35 to 75 lbs while Canadian Lynx are usually 20-45 lbs

It's like a dog.

I've seen one of these in the wild here in Sweden. Amazing animals.
@Cominick Druz - Haha, do you even have wild-life over there? 😉 Well, you'll always have hygge

You are lucky to have spotted one. They are very elusive. If they werent territorial they would be impossible to hunt

You do know that like Norway and Finland, Sweden is mostly wilderness ☺️
Did you buy a "Triss" that day? 😁
Beautiful animals cats are the best
That's fact!! Now let the dog people come in and say ,but my dog wears a sweater......
Lynx are my favourite animals.But i love fox too
The largest species of eurasian lynx are siberian lynx!
I can't believe how gentle and loving they were
They're like huge kitty cats:)
siberian lynx is not a species of it's own!
siberian lynx is the same as erasian lynx, but just living in siberia.

awesome lynx , affectionate and playful, wish she was my pet
Oh no! Zena's adorable! 😍😍😍
She really wants to play with you! 😊😊😁
It's her natural instinct to play with her food =))
Cats do play with other cats
