The Status of the Lynx in Canada, 1920-1952
Journal of Forestry, 1952Abstract Little is known about the biology and status of several of the fur-bearers inhabiting the extensive forest stands of Canada. Some of these species, such as the wolverine, fisher, and lynx are diminishing in numbers. The Canada lynx, Lynx canadensis canadensis Kerr, a typical denizen of the boreal forests, is becoming a rarer

Journal of Parasitology, 2001
The seroprevalence of antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii was investigated in trapped lynx (Lynx canadensis) and bobcats (Lynx rufus) from Québec, Canada. Forty-seven of 106 (44%) lynx and 4 of 10 (40%) bobcats had positive titers for T. gondii (> or = 25) by means of the modified agglutination test incorporating mercaptoethanol and formalin-fixed ...

Isolation of peripheral populations of Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis)
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 2015Landscape barriers to gene flow, such as rivers, can affect animal populations by limiting the potential for rescue of these isolated populations. We tested the riverine barrier hypothesis, predicting that the St. Lawrence River in eastern Canada would cause genetic divergence of Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis Kerr, 1792) populations by restricting ...

Recent Records of Canada Lynx in Wisconsin
Journal of Mammalogy, 1957There have been several recent occurrences of Lynx canadensis in Wisconsin, none of which has apparently been reported. The latest specimen was shot on December 16, 1955, in Rusk County by Glen Kresick of Ingram, Wisconsin. The lynx was killed about two miles north of Ingram in Sec. 1, T. 35 N, R. 4 W. The last …

FATALCLOSTRIDIUM SEPTICUMMYONECROSIS IN A CAPTIVE CANADA LYNX (LYNX CANADENSIS)
Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2014A 1-yr-old female Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) presented for sudden onset of rapidly progressive bilateral pelvic limb paralysis. The lynx was chemically immobilized to perform a physical examination but expired shortly thereafter. On postmortem radiographs, there were myriad small irregular, round-to-spherical gas densities within the skeletal muscle

Fine-scale genetic structure and dispersal in Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) within Alberta, Canada
Canadian Journal of Zoology, 2006Although mammals are typically characterized by male-biased dispersal, field studies of lynx conflict as to whether dispersal is male-biased or lacks sex-bias. To resolve this issue we dissect fine-scale genetic structure and analyze dispersal in regard to gender using 19 microsatellite loci, teemed with extensive sampling (n = 272 adults) of Canada ...

Toxoplasma gondii, one of the more common zoonotic parasites in the world, can cause serious illness in humans and other animals worldwide. Felids are the only known host that can shed T. gondii oocysts, which are essential to the perpetuation of the parasite.

Dynamics of an Exploited Canada Lynx Population in Ontario
The Journal of Wildlife Management, 1987Population structure, mortality, productivity, and condition of lynx (Felis lynx) from zones of distinctly different harvest density and forest type in northeastern Ontario were contrasted. These population parameters were remarkably consistent and showed little variation across the 107,000-km2 study area.

Forest fires and the snowshoe hare-Canada lynx cycle
Oecologia, 1978This paper shows that there is a reasonable coincidence between the Canada lynx cycle and the occurrence of forest and brush fires. Fires set in motion plant succession, potentially leading to an increase in snowshoe hares (Grange, 1965). Snowfall is also correlated with the lynx cycle and tends to account for the variation not accounted for by fires ...
