Saw a lynx in the wild a couple years back. That was awesome since I'd grown up around these parts and had never spotted one.

@CaptainCanadia You were probably dreaming or hallucinating

@CaptainCanadia that would be awesome. There are bobcats here and although they aren't rare I've only seen one in the wild in my entire life...sitting not far from the road on a rock like it was catching some warmth from the sun.

@cherokeepatti Yeah, I live in the boreal forest in Canada and there's a tremendous amount of wildlife, but most of it is noctural and shy. So I see deer, moose, and coyotes all the time and bears occasional. But lynx, wolves, badgers, wolverines, and so forth are rare sightings.

@CaptainCanadia Saw 2 coyotes the same week here this summer. The boy I'm raising saw the second one (he wasn't looking down at his Ipad that time) and he got the biggest kick out of seeing it, it was dark outside...and about 7-8 blocks from where we live. Told him we need to get in the car and go places after dark more often.
