Evaluating evolutionary history and adaptive differentiation to identify conservation units of Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis)

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2019
Protection and management of adaptively diverse populations is critical to meet the goals of conservation policy and to conserve the evolutionary potential of species into the future.

Molecular survey of taeniid cestodes with special emphasis on Echinococcus species in free-roaming dogs and wild carnivores in Armenia [PDF]

Parasitology
Echinococcosis, caused by cestodes of the genus Echinococcus, poses significant public health and veterinary concerns globally. In Armenia, cystic echinococcosis (CE) is well-documented in livestock and humans, while alveolar echinococcosis (AE) has long

Paint it black: first record of melanism in Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis)

Mammalia, 2022
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

Behaviour as an indicator of cyclic trends in abundance of Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) and snowshoe hare (Lepus americanus)

Ecological Indicators
Changes in reproduction may be closely linked to population density and often manifest in various behaviours. Thus, variation in behaviours associated with reproduction can provide insights into the mechanisms influencing the distribution and abundance ...

Case report: Canine distemper virus infection as a cause of central nervous system disease in a Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx)

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
The Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) represents an endangered species with only small populations remaining in Central Europe. Knowledge about the threat posed by potential infectious agents to these animals is crucial for informing ongoing protection measures.

Habitat Selection and Risk of Predation: Re-colonization by Lynx had Limited Impact on Habitat Selection by Roe Deer [PDF]

, 2013
Risk of predation is an evolutionary force that affects behaviors of virtually all animals. In this study, we examined how habitat selection by roe deer was affected by risk of predation by Eurasian lynx - the main predator of roe deer in Scandinavia ...

Oral Papillomatosis in Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis) [PDF]

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2007
We observed 11 cases of oral papillomatosis among 48 free-ranging Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) that had been shipped to Colorado for translocation purposes. Lesions were 1-3 mm, multifocal, nonpigmented sessile masses and occurred on the ventral lingual surface. Adverse clinical signs were not observed.

Raven (Corvus corax) as a novel food item for lynx (Lynx canadensis)

Canadian field-naturalist, 2022
Canada Lynx (Lynx canadensis) is a specialist predator of Snowshoe Hare (Lepus americanus), which dominates its diet. However, hare populations cycle over 9–11 years, and many lynx disperse or starve during cyclic lows of their prey.

Seven decades of southern range dynamics of Canada lynx

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
The range of the Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) has contracted substantially from its historical range. Using harvest records, we found that the southern range of the lynx in Ontario in the late 1940s collapsed and then, in a short period of time ...

Spatial segregation and habitat partitioning of bobcat and Canada lynx

FACETS, 2020
Harvest records suggest that the abundance of bobcats (Lynx rufus) has increased and the leading edge of their distribution has spread northward, while the trailing edge of the Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) range has contracted in Ontario, Canada.
