The climate of Daxing'anling region is unique and belongs to the cold temperate continental monsoon climate, which is known as the "alpine forbidden area". Although it is not very suitable for human habitation, it is a paradise for wildlife.
Countless "rare and exotic beasts" thrive here, so the Daxinganling area is also one of the more biodiverse areas on the mainland, and brown bears, lynx, original musk, red deer, moose, wolves, roe deer and other national key protected animals can be found here.
Located in the transition zone between the cold temperate coniferous coniferous forest of Daxing'anling Mountains and the temperate mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forest of Xiaoxing'anling, Heilongjiang Chu nahe National Nature Reserve belongs to the ecological type of inland forest with high forest coverage, providing a habitat for many wild animals.
The Eurasian lynx is the only lynx in the 4 species of lynx in the genus Lynn that is distributed on the mainland, and it is also the largest and most powerful lynx, known as the "ceiling" of the combat power of small and medium-sized cats.
Although it is not very large, it can put down large ungulates such as red deer. The Eurasian lynx is a cold-loving species that is widely distributed in the northern tip of Eurasia and occurs mainly in some northern provinces on the continent.
Recently, the figure of the lynx was found in the Tuna River Nature Reserve, crouching on the side of the road, staring at people fiercely, and making a fluttering action.
Lynx appeared on the side of the road, and their eyes were fierce and fierce
When a tourist was passing by a road in the Chuna River Nature Reserve, he found a relatively large "cat" on the side of the road not far in front of him, and he squatted on the side of the road and turned his head to look at people when he saw someone coming.
At first, tourists thought it was a fat stray cat, which looked quite cute, so they photographed it. A closer look revealed that the animal bore little resemblance to our common cat, with a head closer to a tiger than the average cat, spots on its body, hair on its cheeks, and even more strange two tufts of black hair on the tips of its ears and a short tail.
Based on various characteristics, this is a Eurasian lynx, which belongs to the national second-level protected animal and there is no possibility of being a pet.
At first, I saw this lynx squatting on the lawn by the side of the road, and when it saw someone coming, it was not afraid to run away, on the contrary, it looked sharply and stared at people fiercely, and then it leaned down and made the classic cat feeding action, which really frightened people.
Eurasian lynx is not small in the cat subfamily, with 18-30 kilograms in adulthood, which is much larger than the average domestic cat. If it really attacks people, I believe many people may not be able to beat it.
The biggest feature of the Eurasian lynx is that its tail is short, the tip of the tail is black, there are tufts of hair on the ears, the limbs are strong, and the body is thick, because its body shape is the most similar to the wolf in the cat family, so it also has the title of "wolf cat".
Lynx are highly predatory and love to eat rabbits
Lynx are products of the Northern Hemisphere, and they are more adaptable to the environment, whether it is coniferous forests, plateau meadows, alpine deserts, or rocky and bushy areas. They are less dependent on water and more tolerant of hunger.
They live in isolation and tend to act alone. But a growing body of research suggests that lychees aren't as lonely as we think they are.
Some male lynx, before the arrival of the estrus period, have been in regular contact with female lynx, and also roost and forage together. And in the subsequent childcare process, it will also take on some responsibilities, including removing threats, feeding food and so on.
The lynx is a skilled hunter who is good at climbing trees and is also good at swimming, but they generally do not go into the water easily.
The Eurasian lynx has a wide range of diets and is capable of killing large prey. Its regular prey is mainly hares, snow rabbits, wild mice, squirrels, lemmings, marmots, quails, musk deer, roe deer and deer cubs.
However, for lynx, their favorite prey is rabbits, various hares occupy most of their diet, and sometimes lynx even walk more than ten kilometers to find the traces of prey for a bite of rabbit meat.
The lynx's wide paws allow them to have a strong ability to move in the snow, and it is not difficult to hunt down snow rabbits.
The lynx is clever and cautious and does not fight with uncertainty
The lynx is a very intelligent animal, which can also be said to be cunning, and when they prey on birds, they usually do it at night.
At night, birds usually return to their nests, or stand on the branches to rest, and when they fall asleep, the lynx will sneak up the tree and catch the bird without much effort.
In nature, tigers, leopards, snow leopards and other more powerful predators are its natural enemies, and when faced with natural enemies, lynx often use their superb climbing skills to escape from trees.
There is a saying that lynxes will pretend to be dead in the face of predators to escape the disaster, in fact this is nonsense, Eurasian lynx basically do not do this.
The lynx is cautious and can leapfrog large ungulate prey, but it never fights with uncertainty.
In the Nalypoki Forest in the central and western belarus, where European timber wolves and lypsies live together, lynx have been repeatedly observed ambushing and shooting down single gray wolves, but never recorded attacking wolves or provoking local brown bears.
In fact, even adult male lynx, the opponents selected are basically some skinny lone wolves, late-pregnant she-wolves, sub-adult wolves who have just run away from home, and young wolves, even some larger male red foxes, it will not rush to provoke.
On the mainland, lynx, also known as wild beavers, sneak into villages to hunt piglets or lambs, and are less afraid of people than other cats, and when threatened, they will make some demonstrative movements.
Lynx have a strong habit of hiding food, burying endless prey with snow and waiting until food is scarce to find out and eat.
