I don't know why you'd assume the "wolf died of his wounds" in a 48 sec squabble. He more likely just learned this is not his territory and stayed away.
Right! There are many reasons. Like this one from Wikipedia: "Offspring typically stay in the pack for 10-54 months before dispersing. Triggers for dispersal include the onset of sexual maturity and competition within the pack for food. The distance travelled by dispersing wolves varies widely; some stay in the vicinity of the parental group, while other individuals may travel great distances of upwards of 206 km (128 mi), 390 km (240 mi), and 670 km (420 mi) from their natal (birth) packs. A new pack is usually founded by an unrelated dispersing male and female, travelling together in search of an area devoid of other hostile packs." And so on.
@@marythomson7931 You are confusing them for lions. Wolves live in the wild live in family units consisting of the breeding female, breeding male, previous years pups and current year pups. The offspring typically leave their natal pack around 2-3 years of age, and select a mate from other dispersing wolves from other packs, then they move to estabilish a new pack to become the breeding male and female.
@@No-longer1 Wrong. Wolves do not live only in human-style "nuclear families". They can include random stragglers who sign on and multiple breeding pairs. Additionally, which exact wolves are the active breeders can change by acts of violence and killing. In one example in the Yellowstone wolf populations, a female wolf killed her female sibling, who was the alpha female at the time, and took her male mate as her own, replacing her as the alpha female.

That’s a monster of a male Lynx! Wolf comes by, Lyxn acts like it’s a walk in the part, wolf weirded out by it because most run (and most likely aren’t ‘that’ size), wolf wants to lean in to make sure it really a Lyxn and most likely took a hard left and that Lyxn straight up rolled him hence the Lyxn literally goes straight back to marking his tree stump and then easing off! Wolf on the other hand was like “wtf just happened? I was just cruising down the trail, saw some monster cat critter, attempted to go around him, and the damn thing jumped me when I was leaving!” Mr Wolf later came back after the coast was clear to verify that heck that thing really was!
That is a female Lynx there are no balls on the reared of that cat. Females have their own territories and they patrol and mark them just like the males do. Yes she is large but male would be another 25% bigger, the wolf’’s curiosity made him get too close to her and she let him know that’s unacceptable.
Excellent video! However I highly doubt wolf succumbed to any injuries. It’s hide is super super tough and it looked just fine in his inspection when made the come back to the scene
I don't know if it died. But this is part of a very long report written by experts on wolves and lynx. So if they think he died they must have a good reason for thinking that
@@VileHearts Whoever wrote the description is delusional. A lone wolf isn't staying in one place, it's traveling looking for a mate/ pack. Wolf's travel over 30 miles a day. This is an apex predator that takes down large prey, they can handle a 48 second tusle.
Could be that I'm wrong, but I'm cynical, so I bet the tree stump the cat kept going to was baited with some kind of scent in the hopes of catching predators coming by. That likely led to this encounter being captured by the trail cam.

Most wolves average about 80 lbs and a really big one runs about 100. That wolf didn’t seem overly large, however I definitely agree the lynx was a pretty big boy. So I’d guess the wolf to be about 80 and the lynx about 65. Which is a helluva lot of cat and large even for a male Eurasian lynx
They look like they're close in size, but that's because a lynx has very long legs. The wolf is much heavier, must be around 40 kg. A big male lynx only weighs about 25 kg. But I'd be happy for @Naust Eco Station to correct me.
@@billwilliams9897 yeah and I remember when one House cat were able to fight 2 African bull elephants, T-rex and a dragon. He successfully defeated Elephants and the T-rex and was even held back the dragon while the US military came to nuke it. Cat survived the nuke and will be honored for the service to the country.
Even bobcats are a force to be reckoned with. There's a video out there of either a small lynx or a large bobcat KILLING A DEER. Absolutely mental what these little dudes are capable of.
for anyone wondering of the description, let me explain a few key details. as we know, Lynxes are felines. AKA: related to cats, and what do most cat bites result in regardless of treatment? infection, and im not talking "ooh this hurts but itll heal" infection, no, i mean lose your limb type of infection, the REALLY deep type of infection. now at 0:08 it's very blurry, but you can see the Lynx on the wolf's back, and it looks as though the wolf got pounced by the lynx, and what do cats do when they pounce? dig their claws in and bite. Most likely resulting in infection, which in turn could cost the wolf its life, especially so if it doesn't have a pack. Although smaller felines generally cant do as much damage as a canine* (not AS much damage, they can still rip into you quite good) they cause long-term damage with their bacteria and infection, so even if the wolf looked fine in the video, it likely wasn't hours/days after if it got bitten. People do forget that wild animals dont have antibiotics or anything, so if they get an infection they cant hunt, so they may as well be done for. thats why the guy assumed it died
Wolves have a very good immune system. You hardly see them dying from battle infections. If this wolf dies, it would be if the lynx gave him a bleeding wound.
Eurasian Lynx are the largest species of Lynx in the world, and they are more than capable of competing with wolves. The only wolves in Europe that are bigger than Eurasian Lynx are Scandinavian wolves
It does appear that the Lynx got the better of this brief exchange, but I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion that the wolf probably died of it's wounds. I don't see any obvious wounds on either animal. PS) The wolf appears to have been shedding, and may have been suffering from either fleas or mange judging by the condition of it's tail.
Thanks for your comment. Indeed, we did not find a carcass of this wolf. However, both the Kazimir lynx and wolf couple to which this male wolf belonged were under our intensive control by camera-traps (there were at least ten of them in the core area of both) and before the encounter we took photos of the male wolf frequently (not every day, but regularly). After the encounter we did not register the male wolf anymore, although his mate was still staying in the same core area of the couple home range often. She had pups and looked after them alone. From all these information we concluded that perhaps this male wolf died. Here it is well known that lynx can open a belly of big hunting dog very fast. May be something similar happened with the wolf, but it is hard to see in the photos. Nevertheless, scientifically and generally the main thing of this our documentation is not whether the wolf died or not after the encounter with the lynx. The main lessons are (1) the wolf and lynx as species attack each other, i.e. there is an extreme interference between the species; (2) an adult male lynx can beat (win) an adult male wolf. P.S. yes the wolf had a mange tail, but it is beside the question
I’m not sure about this, my border collie mix has killed an adult lynx with no wounds. Although he’s trained to be extremely aggressive against felines on our property, he protects chickens and goats. The lynx had a displaced neck and wasn’t able to leave the area after a very short struggle. I’d put the cat at around 50-60lbs. My assumption is a wolf understands a large cat can quickly gore a dog so in turn it wouldn’t want to bother risking even fighting never mind breaking its neck whereas a trained dog is more reckless. PS I don’t condone violence he’s just doing his job
Animals don't die that quick unless put in a kill hold. This is no movie. Claws don't cut deep enough to kill anything. It would literally take 30 mins or longer for 2 animals near the same strength to finish 1 off unless it's put in a kill hold. Seen a video of a raccoon fighting a cougar for 15 mins because it couldn't put the racoons in a kill hold and the racoon ended up getting away because the man opened the door. A animal is not gonna sit there and just die
That’s a male lynx in his prime. His confidence alone would win that fight. Stunning animals, the wolf looked CGI in the thumbnail, he has a gorgeous coat.
Unlikely the wolf died of it's wounds. This was simply a fight over territory so it was likely just a couple second scuffle, once the lynx made it's point, the wolf decided to leave
Yeah...usually animals avoid to fight when they're at risk of heavy injury ar death. If these encounters were likely to happen deadly, wolf would not engage in it in the first place.
Imagine wrestling a very very strong guy with a natural talent for wrestling plus five razor sharp switch blades on all four limbs... plus four daggers in his mouth. Lone wolf must've never met a lynx before.
They both have super lose skin, which helps them survive these kinds of attacks. They are basically like water, you cant grab them without them still having the ability to eff you up.
while both are high tier predators they are very different. Wolfs are not ambush predators, they chase there prey over long distances. The Cat is an ambush predator. The point is a cat can only win if the fight is over in short time. In an long fight like against some big guard dogs that go on and on and on they don't last
@@Gorihoodini look again mate. This is some Kind of lynx or bobcat. An Kangal or Owtscharka would maul the cat to death. Sure they would getting hurt pretty bad but this breeds become 220 pounds and they start to shake and don't let go any more.
Not sure how one would come to the conclusion that after a short wrestling match, the wolf just up and died. Male Wolves fight one on one with Mountain Lions and normally lose but Male Wolves hold their own and have been known to make it out alive. When Wolves are killed by Cougar its almost always due to the Lion getting the Wolf's back and biting the base of the neck/back of the skull. Cougar have larger claws with more powerful limbs and in this very brief scuffle its hard to believe the wolf died from a scratch if it was healthy. Would their not be a body of the wolf not far from the camera if it really died. If the fight lasted only 38 seconds no way wounds in that short of time would be enough otherwise you would see copious amounts of blood on the wolf. Now a Male wolf that is old and sick if it died more than likely it was of old age/sickness.
lol wolf looks perfectly healthy after, idk how description writer conclude he died lol, lynx could kill a wolf with a prolonged bite on a throat, but that didnt happen it was just a scrap and thats it
Longest dog fight was close to 4 hours and u have broken bones, face ripped of and they still continue to fight. Animals can take more punishment then getting clawed and dying
The ecologists at Naust Eco Station know what they're talking about. They keep up with these animals using camera traps. The wolf was never seen again - that says a lot.
@@goeloegoele There are different and valid reasons that lead an animal to disappear from a place, especially in the case of a young wolf in dispersion: It may have resumed the journey in search of a mate and a territory for itself, or a herd in which to insert itself. moving at the rate of over 50 km a day, but do they really think they will find it again? Certainly it can incur in fatal accidents (cars, poisoned baits, poachers, bears, a pack of wolves not at all friendly or perhaps another more determined lynx etc ...), but from the series of photos presented I only saw two animals having a very brief comparison without particular consequences; so much so that the wolf soon returned to visit the place. Was it his ghost? The consideration for me is too deductive and does not satisfy even in the abstract the conclusions they claim to support.
Too bad its not a video:/ I would really like to see how confrontation between them exactly looked like. Could grown eurassian lynx beat a lone wolf or also some other bigger carnivore? It looks quite fragile but on photos wolf seems to be quite wary in front of lynx.
cats are generally more savage and stronger and equiped for one vs one battle than dogs. even if lynx was smaller he would still beat bigger wolf. wolves only strong when they are in packs. and only lions among cats "walk with pack". other cats always alone. (except some wild city cats)
@@cookiemasta1658 No, even coyotes hunt lynx. Canines are given that name for a reason, their bite strength is obscene. Cats strength relies on speed, but it tires very fast. That's why cats hunt by going straight to the neck, they must not fail. But the wolf never tires, they're built for scouting and chasing prey to exhaustion; whereas feline often relies in 1 single sprint to hunt, hit or miss.
Small wolf, huge lynx... Where I live we have the largest wolves in the world ( Mackenzie valley wolf ) and even the biggest lynx is no where near the size of a wolf. The Eurasian lynx must be bigger than the North American lynx... still a really cool video!
Truth is, all cats everywhere behave very similar. If our domestic cats where the size of a Lynx or larger, but the same temperament as we know it, I would not feel comfortable around them - deep inside they are like any big cat, just in a small package. 😅 They just arent anywhere as domesticated as dogs. There is way more behavioral distance between a dog and a wolf than there is between a house cat and a tiger.
That lynx can & would eat that lone wolf for lunch! Just as a bobcat does foxes. I try to call & shoot fox here in the yard but my lynx ferals snag them if they get in .22 cal range.
Is that them rolled up in a ball together in the blurry photo? If so the wolf got ripped up a little. Likely just scratched to shit, that's 4 sets of claws and one mouth in close quarters vs one mouth. Seemed like just a quick thing and done, I'm actually surprised the cat didn't just flee. Cats are normally more likely to just avoid. I'm thinking the wolf may have rushed it after it was crouched in the bushes...too bad this wasnt a video
0:07 - This NOT 2 animals fighting! Fight NEVER happened! That's one wolf on his back rolling around, the fluffy part is his tail NOT the lynx! The wolf is marking territory, which is often followed rolling on their back.
I agree. There is no evidence the two ever touched. Plus when they are presented in the same frame, it could very well be two separate frames superimposed. And the thing about the wolf dying is just nonsense
I wonder if they know that one is a wolf and the other is a Eurasian lynx? They might think that they are a Bikini bottom Smurf and the other thinks it's a antarctic gargoyle.
@@artieziff345 No Comparison. Talking about bite force for a Hyena against a wolf is like talking about a machete vs a guillotine. They just don't belong in the same sentence. A wolf is not even powerful as a Lep or a Jag, bite force wise. Hyena supercede the latter two.
@Lee Wilson Well, TBH that hasn't been proven. What's been proven is that the wolf bites at over 600 psi and that test is on UA-cam. There is a herding dog, very massive like a wolf called Kurdish Kangol and one was measured at 750 PSI which is right up there with Tigers and above Lions. Research it.
I highly doubt either of these animals would want to get into a full blown fight, as they have to stay perfectly healthy to survive in the wild, and if they had a fight til death, even the winner would be badly damaged. I'd put my money on the Lynx here, as it was big, has sharp claws and teeth, and the wolf only teeth. This wolf also looks very unhealthy, as it's fur is all matted, and doesn't look healthy at all. I don't think this wolf would stand much of a chance.
They were just testing eachother. Probably had never met one of the other species. Obviously in a 1 on 1 fight, the Lynx wins everytime(especially if it's in hunting mode and the wolf never sees it) . It takes Deer down on it's own. On the other hand, Majority of Wolf are 1 yell for help from having a pack on the way, unless it's the outcast. So I'm thinking this wolf was an outcast by its size and fur. He/she was just hungry enough to try and the Lynx said "nah."
@@ReggieCox Even a 200 pound wolf instinctively knows not to mess with any Feline predator on its own and without a pack. Even with a pack, they generally still wont even try.

@@carolmartin2503 The overall greatest hunter on earth has to be the grey wolf. I am very aware that their kill rate is no where near the highest but hear me out. Their hunting tactics have made them the most widespread predator on earth and before they were huntef by humans heavily they were the most widespread MAMMAL ON LAND !!! This means they are the only animal ever to be able to be a successful hunter on literally every single possible climate/ condition. For example grey wolves are successful in the desert, rainforest, open grasslands, arctic tundra where no big cat can survive/ hunt, mountainous regions in the Himalayan range and even sea wolves that have 70% of their diet from the sea. With all that being said it should be no surprise to you that wolves have the most diverse prey selection of all time. Wolves across the world will kill things as small as mice and fish and when winter comes around they can switch it up and take down bull bison weighing 1.5 tons. All the big cats and their hunting tactics needs certain conditions to be fulfilled to be successful. All big cats are ambush hunters so they need a good amount of cover to find succes. Wolves on the other hand can and will hunt in any scenario to success, they don't need cover at all. The proof is In the fact that in the arctic tundra there is no cover for miles. Just a vast open waste land where your prey can see you coming from miles away. Wolves just out run their prey. Hunting in the tundra of the arctic might be the hardest place for a predator to hunt on earth, with 6 months of complete darkness and -60 degree temperatures, only the best survive... This is why no big cats live in that place because of their limited hunting style. Taking all that to account im saying wolves are the GREATEST hunters on earth and its NOT even close!!!
@@samo6083Okay, I heard you out. Cats have 11 million years of evolutionary history, while canids only a tenth of that. That points to excellent survival strategies. Felids also survive in very extreme conditions. Some live in coastal regions, deserts, and mountain ranges. Lone wolves have difficulty surviving, while the majority of felids (with the exception of lions) live solitary lives and depend only on themselves. A more recent tactic that is being seen among cheetahs is cooperative hunting. This is not the norm. It takes a whole pack of wild dogs to press a single big cat. The reason wolves live in these uninhabitable places is because they've been driven out by humans. Cats can and do live right under the noses of humans without detection. Much, much smarter animal.
The thing is, when you get in a wrestle match with a cat, you not only have to deal with its teeth but also getting mauled by 4 paws with razor sharp claws. All cats fight the same if its over territory, from house cat to tiger, they force the opponent into a ground brawl where they bite the head while clawing into the neck with the front paws and start chopping the belly up with the hind legs. Likewise, a cat on the back is not a submissive gesture like it would be amongst canines, its a sign that its about to get serious for the opponent if he attacks, even if that one is bigger and stronger, because he will have to expose his belly to all the murder mittens, while only able to bite or use two paws to claw.
That enormous Lynx got lucky because Wolfs usually hunt in packs! I think that lone Wolf just tried his luck, but since the Lynx was too much of a trouble, it went out to hunt something easier.
He would've run if he saw another wolf coming, but since he noticed that the wolf is a loner he stood his ground. I'm pretty sure he didn't get that big with just luck
WOW! That's was REALLY something! I'm wondering where that wolf "ranks". I didnt see a pack (obviously). Was it a beta or a loner/outcast? It didn't look like a huge alpha. Thanks for sharing this with us. ☺

Wiki..Predators en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurasian_lynx "In Russian forests, the most important predators of the Eurasian lynx are gray wolves. Wolves kill and eat lynx that fail to escape into trees. Lynx populations decrease when wolves appear in a region and are likely to take smaller prey where wolves are active. However, there also are reported instances of lynx having killed sub-adult and apparently weaken wolves in Belarus, suggesting a dominance of lynx over wolves in the region since no predation of wolves on lynx was found.[66] Wolverines are perhaps the most dogged of competitors for kills, often stealing lynx kills. Lynxes tend to actively avoid encounters with wolverines, but may sometimes fight them if defending kittens. Instances of predation on lynx by wolverines may occur, even perhaps on adults, but unlike wolf attacks on lynx are extremely rare if they do in fact occur. There are no known instances of lynx preying on a wolverine.

@@dafnes. You might be referring to the Canadian Lynx. A Eurasian Lynx can weigh upto 65lbs on average and in Siberia, where they tend to grow bigger, they weigh as much as 100lbs.

And the other fellows commented above, dont even think of going up with a Mountain Lion(Puma/Cougar). They would tear up any wolf(even 2 or 3) into pieces!!!
From the looks of it, the wolf didn't seem threatened by the lynx and was almost in play mode. You can see it laying down right infront of the lynx. The lynx showed signs of being worried with its back arched and ears back. The wolf had ears forward and body posture looked calm.
Great videos! I like seeing the interaction of the two without actually witnessing one being mauled to death. Very Pollyanna of me, I know. Nature, red in tooth and claw is very real and keeps things in balance, but some of us don't like looking at it. I can't figure man in that balance tho. Altho Tennyson's poem was covering evolution and extinction, most extinction nowadays is the result of man. Does that make us "outside" of nature? Are WE unnatural? 🇨🇱
The wolf in the video is of typical male size, while the lynx is a large male. Additionally, there’s a tribute post dedicated to the lynx in the pictures --> www.nalibokiforest.info/post/legendary-kazimir-the-lynx
People, there is a 99% chance the wolf didn't die from such a brief encounter A feline once again danced on the head of a canine. That beatdown was probably enough incentive for the wolf to not return too often and to walk around the area.
Lynx are considered as the 3rd predator in Europe after Bears & wolves, so the cats are pretty impressive in killing. It kills deer just like tigers, it can jump as high as 5 meters and of course climbing trees is natural, ground fighting with wolves is no problem as we see from this vid.
How? Where? Wolf returned .. do you see him limping or overly concerned? There was 0 benefit in either animal incurring a fatal injury in the 48-second cage match. So they both do the reasonable thing and move on. Animals are quite smarter than people making up big stories in the name of science.

@@No-longer1 Wrong. Wolves do not live only in human-style "nuclear families". They can include random stragglers who sign on and multiple breeding pairs. Additionally, which exact wolves are the active breeders can change by acts of violence and killing. In one example in the Yellowstone wolf populations, a female wolf killed her female sibling, who was the alpha female at the time, and took her male mate as her own, replacing her as the alpha female.

That’s a monster of a male Lynx! Wolf comes by, Lyxn acts like it’s a walk in the part, wolf weirded out by it because most run (and most likely aren’t ‘that’ size), wolf wants to lean in to make sure it really a Lyxn and most likely took a hard left and that Lyxn straight up rolled him hence the Lyxn literally goes straight back to marking his tree stump and then easing off! Wolf on the other hand was like “wtf just happened? I was just cruising down the trail, saw some monster cat critter, attempted to go around him, and the damn thing jumped me when I was leaving!” Mr Wolf later came back after the coast was clear to verify that heck that thing really was!
You actually made that up. There's no proof anything happened here, the wolf was rolling around on the ground the lynx was gone.
That is a female Lynx there are no balls on the reared of that cat. Females have their own territories and they patrol and mark them just like the males do. Yes she is large but male would be another 25% bigger, the wolf’’s curiosity made him get too close to her and she let him know that’s unacceptable.

It looks that just his pride was seriously injured

Exactly. Wolves can handle bear attacks, so that was nothing but a play day.

Nobody's mentioning the fact that they're both very interested in the the specific spot
What could that mean??
probably every cat and wolf passing by drop their scent at this specific place
Could be that I'm wrong, but I'm cynical, so I bet the tree stump the cat kept going to was baited with some kind of scent in the hopes of catching predators coming by. That likely led to this encounter being captured by the trail cam.

Most wolves average about 80 lbs and a really big one runs about 100. That wolf didn’t seem overly large, however I definitely agree the lynx was a pretty big boy. So I’d guess the wolf to be about 80 and the lynx about 65. Which is a helluva lot of cat and large even for a male Eurasian lynx
They look like they're close in size, but that's because a lynx has very long legs. The wolf is much heavier, must be around 40 kg. A big male lynx only weighs about 25 kg.

This was a BIG lynx.
But has low endurance
Ain't nothing like a Honey Badger
No it’s not. Honey badgers care way less about taking damage. Lynx have much more of a sense of self preservation.
Even bobcats are a force to be reckoned with. There's a video out there of either a small lynx or a large bobcat KILLING A DEER. Absolutely mental what these little dudes are capable of.
OmG. What a great animal. It's just a wonder that someone was able to film them 🥰 beautiful pictures.
Thank the tree for holding the camera.
for anyone wondering of the description, let me explain a few key details. as we know, Lynxes are felines. AKA: related to cats, and what do most cat bites result in regardless of treatment? infection, and im not talking "ooh this hurts but itll heal" infection, no, i mean lose your limb type of infection, the REALLY deep type of infection.
now at 0:08 it's very blurry, but you can see the Lynx on the wolf's back, and it looks as though the wolf got pounced by the lynx, and what do cats do when they pounce? dig their claws in and bite. Most likely resulting in infection, which in turn could cost the wolf its life, especially so if it doesn't have a pack.
Although smaller felines generally cant do as much damage as a canine* (not AS much damage, they can still rip into you quite good) they cause long-term damage with their bacteria and infection, so even if the wolf looked fine in the video, it likely wasn't hours/days after if it got bitten. People do forget that wild animals dont have antibiotics or anything, so if they get an infection they cant hunt, so they may as well be done for. thats why the guy assumed it died
Wolves have a very good immune system. You hardly see them dying from battle infections. If this wolf dies, it would be if the lynx gave him a bleeding wound.
Thanks for sharing. Two beautiful predators. That lynx is massive btw don’t know they can get that big.
Eurasian lynxes are always that big
Eurasian Lynx are the largest species of Lynx in the world, and they are more than capable of competing with wolves. The only wolves in Europe that are bigger than Eurasian Lynx are Scandinavian wolves
It does appear that the Lynx got the better of this brief exchange, but I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion that the wolf probably died of it's wounds. I don't see any obvious wounds on either animal.
PS) The wolf appears to have been shedding, and may have been suffering from either fleas or mange judging by the condition of it's tail.
Thanks for your comment. Indeed, we did not find a carcass of this wolf. However, both the Kazimir lynx and wolf couple to which this male wolf belonged were under our intensive control by camera-traps (there were at least ten of them in the core area of both) and before the encounter we took photos of the male wolf frequently (not every day, but regularly). After the encounter we did not register the male wolf anymore, although his mate was still staying in the same core area of the couple home range often. She had pups and looked after them alone. From all these information we concluded that perhaps this male wolf died. Here it is well known that lynx can open a belly of big hunting dog very fast. May be something similar happened with the wolf, but it is hard to see in the photos.
Nevertheless, scientifically and generally the main thing of this our documentation is not whether the wolf died or not after the encounter with the lynx. The main lessons are (1) the wolf and lynx as species attack each other, i.e. there is an extreme interference between the species; (2) an adult male lynx can beat (win) an adult male wolf.
P.S. yes the wolf had a mange tail, but it is beside the question
Well Did you see blood or anything at the crime scene? Lol.
I’m not sure about this, my border collie mix has killed an adult lynx with no wounds. Although he’s trained to be extremely aggressive against felines on our property, he protects chickens and goats. The lynx had a displaced neck and wasn’t able to leave the area after a very short struggle. I’d put the cat at around 50-60lbs. My assumption is a wolf understands a large cat can quickly gore a dog so in turn it wouldn’t want to bother risking even fighting never mind breaking its neck whereas a trained dog is more reckless. PS I don’t condone violence he’s just doing his job
Animals don't die that quick unless put in a kill hold. This is no movie. Claws don't cut deep enough to kill anything. It would literally take 30 mins or longer for 2 animals near the same strength to finish 1 off unless it's put in a kill hold. Seen a video of a raccoon fighting a cougar for 15 mins because it couldn't put the racoons in a kill hold and the racoon ended up getting away because the man opened the door. A animal is not gonna sit there and just die
@@limpa756 Are you talking about a Canadian or Eurasian lynx here?
That’s a male lynx in his prime. His confidence alone would win that fight. Stunning animals, the wolf looked CGI in the thumbnail, he has a gorgeous coat.
Wolf would never stand a chance against a cat this size. Cats are the ultimate fighters with their brilliant skill, speed, sharp claws and teeth.

I don't think the Lynx killed the Wolf in this exchange though, seems like it just gave the Wolf a whooping and claimed it's territory
Cat fanboy!
Unlikely the wolf died of it's wounds. This was simply a fight over territory so it was likely just a couple second scuffle, once the lynx made it's point, the wolf decided to leave
Yeah...usually animals avoid to fight when they're at risk of heavy injury ar death. If these encounters were likely to happen deadly, wolf would not engage in it in the first place.

Not sure how one would come to the conclusion that after a short wrestling match, the wolf just up and died. Male Wolves fight one on one with Mountain Lions and normally lose but Male Wolves hold their own and have been known to make it out alive. When Wolves are killed by Cougar its almost always due to the Lion getting the Wolf's back and biting the base of the neck/back of the skull. Cougar have larger claws with more powerful limbs and in this very brief scuffle its hard to believe the wolf died from a scratch if it was healthy. Would their not be a body of the wolf not far from the camera if it really died. If the fight lasted only 38 seconds no way wounds in that short of time would be enough otherwise you would see copious amounts of blood on the wolf. Now a Male wolf that is old and sick if it died more than likely it was of old age/sickness.
lol wolf looks perfectly healthy after, idk how description writer conclude he died lol, lynx could kill a wolf with a prolonged bite on a throat, but that didnt happen it was just a scrap and thats it
Longest dog fight was close to 4 hours and u have broken bones, face ripped of and they still continue to fight. Animals can take more punishment then getting clawed and dying
In fact it's just a far-fetched deduction. The wolf is back walking well with the hair tousled, certainly some lesions, but nothing more.
The ecologists at Naust Eco Station know what they're talking about. They keep up with these animals using camera traps. The wolf was never seen again - that says a lot.
@@goeloegoele There are different and valid reasons that lead an animal to disappear from a place, especially in the case of a young wolf in dispersion: It may have resumed the journey in search of a mate and a territory for itself, or a herd in which to insert itself. moving at the rate of over 50 km a day, but do they really think they will find it again? Certainly it can incur in fatal accidents (cars, poisoned baits, poachers, bears, a pack of wolves not at all friendly or perhaps another more determined lynx etc ...), but from the series of photos presented I only saw two animals having a very brief comparison without particular consequences; so much so that the wolf soon returned to visit the place. Was it his ghost?
The consideration for me is too deductive and does not satisfy even in the abstract the conclusions they claim to support.
Do you have a video you can upload, besides this slow slide show projection?
We have no videos, only pictures. The camera trap was on photo mode, which was lucky because video mode would have missed the fast scene.

cats are generally more savage and stronger and equiped for one vs one battle than dogs. even if lynx was smaller he would still beat bigger wolf. wolves only strong when they are in packs. and only lions among cats "walk with pack". other cats always alone. (except some wild city cats)
@@cookiemasta1658 No, even coyotes hunt lynx. Canines are given that name for a reason, their bite strength is obscene. Cats strength relies on speed, but it tires very fast. That's why cats hunt by going straight to the neck, they must not fail. But the wolf never tires, they're built for scouting and chasing prey to exhaustion; whereas feline often relies in 1 single sprint to hunt, hit or miss.

Truth is, all cats everywhere behave very similar. If our domestic cats where the size of a Lynx or larger, but the same temperament as we know it, I would not feel comfortable around them - deep inside they are like any big cat, just in a small package. 😅 They just arent anywhere as domesticated as dogs. There is way more behavioral distance between a dog and a wolf than there is between a house cat and a tiger.

They were just testing eachother. Probably had never met one of the other species. Obviously in a 1 on 1 fight, the Lynx wins everytime(especially if it's in hunting mode and the wolf never sees it) . It takes Deer down on it's own. On the other hand, Majority of Wolf are 1 yell for help from having a pack on the way, unless it's the outcast. So I'm thinking this wolf was an outcast by its size and fur. He/she was just hungry enough to try and the Lynx said "nah."
That depends on the size of the wolf.

Yep the wolf looked fine
@@carolmartin2503 The overall greatest hunter on earth has to be the grey wolf.
I am very aware that their kill rate is no where near the highest but hear me out.
Their hunting tactics have made them the most widespread predator on earth and before they were huntef by humans heavily they were the most widespread MAMMAL ON LAND !!!
This means they are the only animal ever to be able to be a successful hunter on literally every single possible climate/ condition.
For example grey wolves are successful in the desert, rainforest, open grasslands, arctic tundra where no big cat can survive/ hunt, mountainous regions in the Himalayan range and even sea wolves that have 70% of their diet from the sea.
With all that being said it should be no surprise to you that wolves have the most diverse prey selection of all time.
Wolves across the world will kill things as small as mice and fish and when winter comes around they can switch it up and take down bull bison weighing 1.5 tons.
All the big cats and their hunting tactics needs certain conditions to be fulfilled to be successful. All big cats are ambush hunters so they need a good amount of cover to find succes.
Wolves on the other hand can and will hunt in any scenario to success, they don't need cover at all. The proof is In the fact that in the arctic tundra there is no cover for miles. Just a vast open waste land where your prey can see you coming from miles away. Wolves just out run their prey.
Hunting in the tundra of the arctic might be the hardest place for a predator to hunt on earth, with 6 months of complete darkness and -60 degree temperatures, only the best survive...
This is why no big cats live in that place because of their limited hunting style.
Taking all that to account im saying wolves are the GREATEST hunters on earth and its NOT even close!!!
@@samo6083Okay, I heard you out. Cats have 11 million years of evolutionary history, while canids only a tenth of that. That points to excellent survival strategies. Felids also survive in very extreme conditions. Some live in coastal regions, deserts, and mountain ranges. Lone wolves have difficulty surviving, while the majority of felids (with the exception of lions) live solitary lives and depend only on themselves. A more recent tactic that is being seen among cheetahs is cooperative hunting. This is not the norm. It takes a whole pack of wild dogs to press a single big cat. The reason wolves live in these uninhabitable places is because they've been driven out by humans. Cats can and do live right under the noses of humans without detection. Much, much smarter animal.
I doubt the Eurasian wolf died from its injuries after fighting that Lynx. I'm sure it survived
Wolf is a pretty tough animal. I would doubt it is likely to die from being tossed around for a few seconds by a Lynx. That Lynx was a bad man.
wolves are crappy fighters alone- that's why they stay in packs.
The thing is, when you get in a wrestle match with a cat, you not only have to deal with its teeth but also getting mauled by 4 paws with razor sharp claws. All cats fight the same if its over territory, from house cat to tiger, they force the opponent into a ground brawl where they bite the head while clawing into the neck with the front paws and start chopping the belly up with the hind legs.
Likewise, a cat on the back is not a submissive gesture like it would be amongst canines, its a sign that its about to get serious for the opponent if he attacks, even if that one is bigger and stronger, because he will have to expose his belly to all the murder mittens, while only able to bite or use two paws to claw.
What's buried in the hump, and what does this have to do with a camera? You leave food there?
Where was this?
That enormous Lynx got lucky because Wolfs usually hunt in packs! I think that lone Wolf just tried his luck, but since the Lynx was too much of a trouble, it went out to hunt something easier.
Yep too close in size.
He would've run if he saw another wolf coming, but since he noticed that the wolf is a loner he stood his ground. I'm pretty sure he didn't get that big with just luck
WOW! That's was REALLY something! I'm wondering where that wolf "ranks". I didnt see a pack (obviously). Was it a beta or a loner/outcast? It didn't look like a huge alpha. Thanks for sharing this with us. ☺
Probably a loner or lure female wolf (wolf sent out to lure animal to the pack for killing)
@@OMNIVERSAL777 WHAT!? They do that!?! MAN, these "lower animals" have got intellect I've grossly underestimated. That takes some serious cunning and planning!🙄

I highly doubt the wolf was an alpha, considering it was alone with no pack.
Alphas exist only in artifitial packs. savage ones gerarchy is ruled by ages.
Even alphas go lonewolf sometimes .
Any wolf is a beta when encountering a specimen of a Lynx like this one. 😅
What forest?
@@apfelsaftyeah7623 it's in Belarus

Interesting that it was only a single wolf. It would be interesting to see what would happen if a single lynx came up against a pack or at least two or three wolves as I'm guessing would be more likely as lynx are largely solitary whereas wolves are not.
of course the lynx would have run away- it is not big enough to take on 3 or more wolves. That would be an unfair fight anyways.
That doesn't make wolves superior.
He would climb on a tree and wait 😴😴😴
@@matze_meatyea n a pack of wolves would run n hide in den from a pack of lions 😂
that's the biggest Lynx Ive ever seen! Didn't know they grew that big. They love to go back to their fight or kill area and rub up on the ground where it happened.
Depending on their diet and environment they get a lot bigger than many people think.
The European male Lynx can grow to become 40 kg!

Imagine he came back with the pack lol
He wouldnt be a lone wolf if he got a pack. A lone wolf wouldnt last, a cat can kill it any moment. You don't even need a tiger, just a lynx would do.

Wiki..Predators en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurasian_lynx
"In Russian forests, the most important predators of the Eurasian lynx are gray wolves. Wolves kill and eat lynx that fail to escape into trees. Lynx populations decrease when wolves appear in a region and are likely to take smaller prey where wolves are active. However, there also are reported instances of lynx having killed sub-adult and apparently weaken wolves in Belarus, suggesting a dominance of lynx over wolves in the region since no predation of wolves on lynx was found.[66] Wolverines are perhaps the most dogged of competitors for kills, often stealing lynx kills. Lynxes tend to actively avoid encounters with wolverines, but may sometimes fight them if defending kittens. Instances of predation on lynx by wolverines may occur, even perhaps on adults, but unlike wolf attacks on lynx are extremely rare if they do in fact occur. There are no known instances of lynx preying on a wolverine.
Wolves attack Lynxes only in groups. No lone wolf ever dare to attack an adult Lynx.
@@canislupus6826 lynxes are so much smaller than wolf so
@@canislupus6826 Oh really? and that is because you say so? There's nothing at all to back up your assertion. And in all of the compiled data on this subject, guess what? There is 0 evidence that an adult MALE Grey Wolf has been killed by a single Lynx. Now do I really need to repeat that?
you got to be kidding me look at 0:04 and tell me what do you see the difference between a wolf and the lynx?! and also they are different types of lynx all around the world big or small and wolves are much bigger then they are and they can kill much about anything like dogs, coyotes bears or bear cubs, young cougars or pumas and much more..???!!!
@@dafnes. You might be referring to the Canadian Lynx. A Eurasian Lynx can weigh upto 65lbs on average and in Siberia, where they tend to grow bigger, they weigh as much as 100lbs. A Wolf, no matter which subspecies, cant subdue or make it up with an adult one alone. Well, in groups, they can.
And the other fellows commented above, dont even think of going up with a Mountain Lion(Puma/Cougar). They would tear up any wolf(even 2 or 3) into pieces!!!
From the looks of it, the wolf didn't seem threatened by the lynx and was almost in play mode. You can see it laying down right infront of the lynx. The lynx showed signs of being worried with its back arched and ears back. The wolf had ears forward and body posture looked calm.
well, the wolf died so no
When it died
lmao nope the lynx knows he can kill that mutts
Did you see the dead wolf? How did you know it died from the wound?
i like how everyone just becomes a animal expert all of a sudden
Great videos! I like seeing the interaction of the two without actually witnessing one being mauled to death. Very Pollyanna of me, I know. Nature, red in tooth and claw is very real and keeps things in balance, but some of us don't like looking at it. I can't figure man in that balance tho. Altho Tennyson's poem was covering evolution and extinction, most extinction nowadays is the result of man. Does that make us "outside" of nature? Are WE unnatural? 🇨🇱
That is a very good question.
not that we are but we are quite strongly becoming
Now I feel a little uncomfortable with lynx being reintroduced in the forest I live in. 😅
100% harmless to humans. No one has ever been attacked by a healthy wild lynx.
Out of curiosity, which forest is that? Pfälzer Wald?
Imagine how Lynx feel having us around.
Never knew there was so many experts in this particular subject on youtube. Amazes me how many people argue over the dumbest shit.
What country?
Is the wolf small or the lynx too big
The wolf in the video is of typical male size, while the lynx is a large male. Additionally, there’s a tribute post dedicated to the lynx in the pictures --> www.nalibokiforest.info/post/legendary-kazimir-the-lynx
Wolf: hey Larry

People, there is a 99% chance the wolf didn't die from such a brief encounter A feline once again danced on the head of a canine. That beatdown was probably enough incentive for the wolf to not return too often and to walk around the area.
Reminds me of the bit in Family Guy- "What're they gonna do, cut our budget?"
" The most likely he died afterwards from the wounds. "
not even a mountain lion could kill a wolf within few seconds of attack. LOL
Nope, but infection does the trick within days
@@matsgranqvist9928 the same can be said about other animals though. Cats in the wild are sometimes vulnerable to disease.
feline > canine dog nutters can't accept this fact.
I saw the title and I thought to myself: a lynx is a formidable animal and you saw that wolfe lose that scuffle.
A lonely wolf is strange, they don't use to attack alone.
Dos magníficos ejemplares. Singularmente el lince es enorme.
Why is the video so choppy though?
Lynx are considered as the 3rd predator in Europe after Bears & wolves, so the cats are pretty impressive in killing. It kills deer just like tigers, it can jump as high as 5 meters and of course climbing trees is natural, ground fighting with wolves is no problem as we see from this vid.
The wolf got owned as expected
How? Where? Wolf returned .. do you see him limping or overly concerned? There was 0 benefit in either animal incurring a fatal injury in the 48-second cage match. So they both do the reasonable thing and move on. Animals are quite smarter than people making up big stories in the name of science. Again: no one has hard evidence of a lynx killing an adult male wolf, not even a 70lb, weak-looking scraggly wolf like the one in this film.
@@pfroncole1 wolves always lose to big cats, only the number can prevent them to this fatal end,. You are taking to much personally because it's your prefered animal
@@titfortat5727 You don't know what you are talking about..Cougars are being killed by wolves here (N. Rockies..Mackenzie Valley Wolf/Timber Wolf/Rocky Mountain Wolf ; and #2 Wolves are the main predator of Lynx in Russia where the Lynx is at its largest size. The research is detailed and established. 3) You have no evidence for what you claim because there are NO verifications of Lynx killing adult healthy male wolves in 1-on-1 fights. Why you and other continue to make a claim that has never been verified is beyond me. There's not evidence of a 70lb lynx killing a 100-145lb male wolf.. None. And also no evidence of such a wolf alone killing suck a lynx. It has nothing to do with my "preferences" but apparently it does for you.

Eurasian lynx are pretty big, being much larger than their North American cousins. They regularly hunt deer and other big game and are basically the cougar of Europe and Siberia.
