Its the first time i'm seeing Lynx.. So beautiful. one question... will it attack human?

[BigCatRescue]

@ebin50 I agree beautiful animals, they're not known for attacking people, but if they were feeling threatened i'm sure they would.

@nadjahlover When we first started rescuing animals we did buy them out of certain situations to save them, however we soon realized that this was simply fueling the trade, the owners could then go out and buy another big cat and we could not afford to buy every cat we saw out of a bad situation unfortunately. We quit breeding in the 90's, we would rather put our resources towards rescuing more cats than breeding more to live in cages for their entire life.

HAHAHAHHA ITS GOT DREADIES!

[TheTonyPolice]

man i have one in forest next to my house and i found dead little doe and hunter said that lynx killed her

[colbour]

@Wobble143 it needs a good brushing.. its sorta matted together. you wanna give it a go? lol, im sure in the wild this would not be an issue because it would be running through under brush. In captivity the animal is not so active

[colbour]

are you sure its not a Jamaican lynx? i mean the dreds he is sporting makes him sorta rasta

[Monabaracuda]

I was getting mad I thought they gave that poor cat dreadlocks!

[DarkSummoner00]

OMG! the Bunny! D:>

[swoosh50]

The dread locks are from her shedding her winterncoat people

[streetyskater]

WHY DOES IT HAS DREADLOCKS!? HAHAHAHAHAAAAA! BLESS! 420.

[rufous03]

@ebin50 only if you corner it and it has no escape route. We have them near where we live and they are seldom seen. In the winter I can find their footprints in the snow, so i know they are around use!
