Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis) as Potential Reservoirs and Sentinels of Toxoplasma gondii in Northern Canada [PDF]
Toxoplasma gondii is a zoonotic parasite globally infecting a wide range of species, including humans. Felids are the only known hosts that can excrete environmentally resistant oocysts into ecosystems.

Paint it black: first record of melanism in Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis)
Abstract Variation in coat colour within mammal species is of enduring interest, likely because of its potential to be either adaptive or maladaptive. Coat colour in the genus Lynx tends to be stable, with little variation within species compared to that of other felids.

Characterization of basal seminal traits and semen cryopreservation in Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis)
Little is known about the reproductive biology of the Canada lynx; virtually no data are available describing seminal parameters in this species and sperm cryopreservation studies have not been performed. Our aims were to 1) evaluate effectiveness of two

Patterns of testicular activity in captive and wild Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis)
Canada lynx are listed as a threatened species in the contiguous US. Understanding the reproductive characteristics (i.e., mating system, behavior, physiology) of a species is useful for ensuring effective in situ and ex situ management plans. The goal of this study was to describe patterns of androgen expression in both captive and wild male Canada ...

Patterns of ovarian and luteal activity in captive and wild Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis)
Canada lynx face some unique breeding restrictions, which may have implications for population viability and captive management. The goal of this study was to improve our understanding of basic reproductive physiology in Canada lynx. Using fecal hormone metabolite analysis, we established normative patterns of fecal estrogen (fE) and progestagen (fP ...

A test of somatic mosaicism in the androgen receptor gene of Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis). [PDF]
The androgen receptor, an X-linked gene, has been widely studied in human populations because it contains highly polymorphic trinucleotide repeat motifs that have been associated with a number of adverse human health and behavioral effects. A previous study on the androgen receptor gene in carnivores reported somatic mosaicism in the tissues of a ...
