Canada Lynx

Canada lynx are important predators in the snowshoe hare population cycle. We have monitored lynx in several different projects.

In 2020-2022, we captured and collared 12 Canada lynx with GPS collars.

Lynx movements

This timelapse shows a year of lynx movements. You can see a well-define home range where this female spent most of her time. However, you can see she makes some exploratory movements outside of her home range near the end of the year. These data help researchers understand how lynx use their habitats.
