It says under the caption of the "Scandinavian Lynx" "Lynx Lynx Lynx", this can not be correct, or there isn't documentation of a "Lynx Lynx Lynx" on wikipedia. I don't know what the classification of a Scandinavian Lynx is, but I thought I'd call it to attention to be corrected.

I have a few questions, it's for a school project! I hope someone can help me!? I was wondering how do they travel? Like, in packs or alone, or what? Alexa Meadows
- I'm not really sure, but I believe they generally are solitary animals. Also, they are quite shy.
- It's true; lynx have trouble getting dates.
Do they conduct their behaviour appropriately in pacts or are they independent animals that find that to mate is a challenge in such isolated environments?

Colleagues, don't you have a photo of a living Scandinavian lynx? A stuffed one looks ugly and miserable.

Yes, it does. I bet someone has, but a wild lynx is one of the thoughest mammals to get a good photo, since she doesn't eat (mostly) anything she hasn't killed. Only good photos of wild animals I've seen are taken on the den. A picture request might be in order. 88.195.46.112 07:12, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
Lynx Grammar
Question regarding the article's grammar: In several places in the "Status" section the author uses "lynxes" as a plural. I thought the plural was simply "lynx." In other places, for instance in the status of the lynx in Norway, the author uses such phrases as "Lynx was" and "Lynx is." I am assuming this should be "Lynx were" and "Lynx are," but I wanted to get a consensus before editing. --12.154.39.254 18:58, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
- Both "lynx" and "lynxes" are correct for the plural.[1] - UtherSRG (talk) 19:33, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
Distribution
According to Reader's Digest North American Wildlife (Mammals, Reptiles and Amphibians) [ISBN 0-7621-0035-4] the L. lynx also lives in Canada, Alaska and small parts of the upper US such as the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I wont edit the page till others agree, I just wanted to throw that out there. --IvanTortuga (talk) 20:59, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Lynx lynx is ENDANGERED according to the international trade and laws of Russia
Lynx lynx is listed as "under the threat of extinction" "category II"(literal translation from Russian) in the official letter from the Federal Customs Authority of Russia of January 21, 2005, Number N 06-59/1213. The letter in full can be found at: http://zooclub.ru/zakon/45.shtml
The above-referenced letter lists the species of animals considered as "under the threat of extinction" or, in common terms, ENDANGERED, under the Internation Convention on Trade of Endangered Wild Flora and Fauna (literal translation from Russian in the above-referenced official letter).
Whoever listed lynx lynx as "Least Concern" or "LC" conservation status made an error. I don't know how to edit the "Eurasian Lynx" page. Please help me correct the error because many illegal poachers in Russia and China are very happy to murder little wild Eurasian Lynx kittens by poisoning and sell the pelts to the furriers in Canada and the USA to make fancy coats. Each "Russian lynx" coat uses 18-25 Russian lynx pelts and sells for over $25,000 new and over $5,000 pre-owned. See http://www.purpleshoshana.com/results/details.asp?pc=1867

Range: Lynx is also found in Bulgaria
The absence of Bulgaria from the list of the Balkan countries seems discriminatory... Even if population is low, it's present - it has been filmed severa; times only in 2008 and 2009 in different parts of the country. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.83.249.136 (talk) 17:49, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
