Watch the Wolves’ Reaction to the Lynx’s Presence!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 бер 2024
- In this intriguing observation, we document the complex interactions within the forest hierarchy. Two male lynxes frequent a specific location for marking their presence through various means - from rubbing and stomping to more direct signs like pooping and peeing. Remarkably, a pair of wolves encounter this marked spot shortly after the lynx’s visit. Their reactions are a blend of concern and caution, as they carefully inspect the area. The body language of the wolves conveys a clear message of unease, possibly even fear, in response to the lynx’s scent-marking. This video provides a rare glimpse into the subtle communications between competing predators in their natural habitat.

Ha, that cat was using every possible manner of marking: spray, pee, poop, rubbing, licking... reserved that storm shelter for himself.
It seems to work. The wolfs did not look superconfident.
In the description they say that it was two different male cats that frequent the area leaving their markings. The wolves seem very timid and worried . . . reminds me of the lyrics of Pink Floyd's "Sheep":
Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air.
You better watch out,
There may be (cats) about
I've looked over Jordan, and I have seen
No, things are not what they seem.
LoL 😭
bro said who dropped a deuce right here at the front door?!
"Manners maketh the man."
Must be a foreigner.
Other wolf: Finders keepers! Yummy cat turds... 😋
Cats rule. What beautiful Lynxes and wolves!
I can call that a first! Never seen a lynx poop before. Not once, but twice!
I just wish I hadn't decided to watch this while having lunch.
@@rjjcms1 lol!
Interesting, thank you!
I note your reply that this is Belarus and the wolves are smaller than American ones.
Thank you! Yes we are in Belarus. The average weight of the wolves in our forests is 40 kg, the biggest was 62kg.
"oh thats cool i wonder how much American wolves weigh" 30-80 kg WHAT THE FUCk@@naustecostation
And perhaps they carry some dog genetics? If so, it would explain the way they carry their tails.
@@joannleichliter4308What do you mean? That is the default way wolves carry their tails.
@@1faithchick7 Yes, wolves and coyotes in North America normally carry tails straight down, with no upward curve at the end. It's almost diagnostic. So I just wondered.
Unlike many canines the wolves didn’t want to eat the cat poop 😂
what I find interesting is when the wolves first approach , one Wolf stays at one end of the pipe first while the other one investigates the markings at the other end before the two of them do , this tells me either one was a lot more cautious than the other or it wanted to prevent any possible prey that be might there from escaping , they both then realise the potential danger before moving off . great video thanks for posting
Interesting observation! The behavior you noticed could indeed be a sign of their instinctual caution and teamwork. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, John!
@@naustecostation no I should thank you for sharing the video
I really do see it differently John and Vadim/Ira.
Of course, it is teamwork, but that is wolf behaviour. In my opinion, everything points to especially very careful behaviour. I have never seen wolves who, if the situation is not clear, both immediately start exploring together shoulder to shoulder.
Their noses already told them from a distance that several lynx had been here. She (in front) stands ready to leap away. The male behind the pipe checks everything in terms of scent and sound as he watches the wolf in the foreground. In the night shot, it is the rear wolf (end of the pipe) that examines the pipe thoroughly first, and then he walks to the front. The high-pitched peeping is typical of a bitch that is a bit stressed. You can see in the night shot how the male walks, and the position of his tail, he is clearly not insecure/fearful, after which the female relaxes and walks away
If I were a wolf, I would also look up at such a strong scent. Those lynxes sometimes like to sit in a tree :)
Everything you show us, Vadim and Ira, I find extremely interesting, and every time we see something new it makes/needs us to think.... and possibly revise our opinions. I love it!
This research should definitely be supported:

those aren't wolves theyre coyotes
@@alexanderkennedy2969 coyotes are not present in Belarus
Just like my dog with the cat that walks by his yard
Yes, much similar
This was one of the most interesting nature videos I’ve ever seen. Sub'd. 👍
Beautiful creatures, all of them! Don't you wonder what's going through the minds of those wolves? Thanks for posting.
I mark my territory much the same way. The planning and zoning committee in my community does not seem to appreciate nature.
it's great to see others appreciate the natural order of things too!
A weird buddy decided to mark over every place his brothers pit bull peed. He and the dog became so angry with each other my friend locked himself in the bathroom with a gun while the offended dog screamed and yelled outside the bathroom door.
@@petehoover6616 Wonderful story. Should have been filmed and shared on UA-cam.
Those doggies know not to mess with the kitty!
But it anyways looks like a giant fluffy furr ball. Just like house cats but a little bigger.
@@vocaljazz5046 - Pound for pound, 95% of dogs don't stand a chance against even a domestic cat, let alone a wild or feral cat! I wouldn't want to be that dog, LOL!
This must be along the outer edges of her territory that she doesn’t get to that often or that cement pipe wasn’t there the last time she was and she wanted it to have her scent. The wolves were acting like a Siberian Tiger was now in the area.
The pipe has been here since Soviet times. Now it serves as a notable landmark in the landscape that lynxes use for marking.
Great footage again V+I
Interesting video. Was that just a regular territorial marking station or was there a kill nearby the Lynx was trying to protect. That Lynx was doing some serious marking in one spot!
All cats have a routine where they have the same circuit and mark the same places for territory and to find a mate. Haven't you watched any Snow Leopard videos? It's how they know where to set a camera. This is normal behavior for any cat and most wildlife cameras on YT have cats and many other animals marking and checking the same spots.
@@myradioon
They also mark kills hence my question. Cammers also set up on kills.
Thank you! It is a regular marking spot captured in before-mating season
@@naustecostation
Thanks for the response!
The lynx would be gratified to know that the wolves paid attention to every method of scent marking that it left, even the very high wee-wees!
Lol those eyes in the dark, funny stuff,
makes me laugh
Fantastic captures! 👍
Marking his territory! Nice footage werevis this ?
Belarus
in 36 years of going to northern ontario fishing i have seen 4 lynx and 9 or 10 wolves. wonderful experiences.
What were those weird sounds??
just not a good mic in the camera, but there is some wolf whinnering at 2:21
Seems like the lynx was reacting to a sent before her as well.
Sure, there are two different males they react to a scent of each other
scent*
Well she certainly did a heck of a job “refreshing” her scent at the scene.
That lynx was marking more than just a little!
Oh, yes. The only signs missing are the scratch markings.
Excellent footage.
Those Wolves were like " Oh Shit Shredder Lives Here "💨💨💨
Reaction to the Lynx's presence or presents?
😂😂😂
I used to go to a forest in Nova Scotia every day or so and in winter, I'd see coyote tracks for some weeks, then they'd disappear and the round tracks of a bobcat or lynx would take their place for 2 or 3 weeks, then they'd move on and the coyote tracks would return. Nature works everything out somehow.
Awesome video about nature thank you
- "Hey wolves, this is my hood now!"
- "Is it tho?"
Hello, great shots. Congratulations, good luck with your further recordings. What camera do you use?🌲🌳🌲
What a cat! That's what I call scent marking! 🤣😂🤣😂
Gran trabajo enhorabuena 👍🏽.
Wise to avoid a lynx.
You missed your chance here to play a recording of a lynx scream!
would be nice, yes
Wolves trying to plot, but worried they're been plotted on....😩✔️💯💪🏾
He is spraying up a storm!
That looks more like a bobcat.
It’s an eurasian lynx, way bigger than a bobcat.
@@alfonsoiranzo3686 thank you 👍🏻🇺🇸
Who wins one on one, lynx vs. wolf?
"Es una casa mas bonita, no, Lupo?"
"Si, pero este casa tienes un aroma muy peligro para nosotros. Vamanos!"
The wolves' tail carriage is is interesting, because, unlike dogs, wolves (and coyotes) normally carry the tail hanging straight down. Even when they raise their tails, the tail doesn't curl towards the end.
No big whoop... just checking their "pee mail."
Those look more like Coyotes that Wolfs. I have seen and tracked both. Wolves are Much Larger.
This is Belarus. There are no coyotes in Europe in the wild, but the wolves are smaller.
These are not coyotes. I see coyotes EVERY day, where I live. These wolves look similar to the North American Red Wolf. Red Wolves are smaller than the Gray Wolf.
@@territepper2779 They are european wolves. The video was shot in Europe.
Also note that not all European wolves are the same size. These are just on the smaller side.
Those are wolves. The average weight of the wolves in our forests is 40 kg, with the largest weighing 62 kg. Please note that the video was captured with a wide-angle camera, which can cause significant distortion in terms of proportion and size.
Wolves were cautious. When you're a predator there's one simple rule...one injury and it's pretty much game over.
For the strength of the pack is the wolf, and the strength of the wolf is the pack. Rudyard Kipling 🐺
I see my dog do the same thing every day
Spraying home territory.
Pretty sure that's a bobcat and possibly coyotes .
They are wolves and Eurasian lynxes, coyotes and bobcats are not present here.
These lynx have a breathtaking anger management problem and there are bamsticks who want to release them in Scotland.
There is no problem with lynx in Sweden or Finland. There over 5000 of them in these two countries. It is a shy animal.
Are those really wolves? Look about coyote sized to me....

These wolves weigh an average of 40kg, with the largest reaching 62kg. Coyotes on average weigh between 15 to 20kg, with the largest being 35kg
@@jancyvargheese5351the wolves can be bigger here and up in Canada. Those guys don't look 40 kilos, I'll just have to take your word for it. Plus we have these coywolves down from Nova Scotia which are about half and half.
They haven't quite ranged to Virginia where I live yet. Not going to be great for pets when they do, but they are pretty critters. I wonder if they howl. Eastern US coyotes don't. Wester sing some amazing songs, though it can be pretty creepy if you're out camping alone in the desert.
I'm sure the wolves can kill them, but if they fight like house cats you gotta be careful.
Man ,if a wolverine turned up to the party ,sparks would fly . The most ferocious animal on the planet . Mongo out of Blazing Saddles keeps one as a pet on a chain in his living room ....more beans ....aaggghhhhh!
We wish wolverines were still present here.
Wow. So much to be learned from that. Excellent video. A wolf trapper needs a pet lynx.
Thank you!

The cat was behaving deliberately offensively. He (definitely a tomcat) was telling the wolves he is going to take over their shelter. They are going to have to kill the lynx if he doesn't leave them alone.
Not a Canadian Lynx’s or Wolves..... Bobcat and Coyotes
Wolves and Eurasian lynxes. It's in Europe (Belarus)
@@naustecostation Thanks... Both did look off to be North American
Two wolves would kill a lynx. A cougar would put up a fight though.
Looks like a nightmare
Why?
That's a Bobcat!
That's an Eurasian lynx! 😁 It's in Belarus, bobcats are not present here.
'Watch wolves reaction to a lynx' presence' of course we're going to watch it. it's a fucking video. also, absolutely nothing happens so what's with the exclamation point?
Russia???
Belarus
Bobcat .. Its not a Lynx
There are no bobcats in Europe. In the video there are two different males of eurasian lynx.
Click bait never fails on you tube. This is a 100% nothing burger
Those aren’t wolves, they’re coyotes
No. There are no coyotes outside North America. And not all wolves are the same size, just like cats aren't.
These are coyotes I'm 99% sure
Edit: I was wrong, these are wolves, just not north American wolves
Nope not coyotes
Coyotes only exist in North America, this is in Belarus. There are larger wolves than these in Europe too, but these are definitely wolves.
@@Ganiscol oh, gotcha, they're definitely small wolves in that case
the average weight of the wolves in our forests is 40 kg, the biggest was 62kg
@@naustecostation got it, I didn't know
those are coyotes. wolves are much bigger
Look like wolves to me.
