lynx are protected so it is worth at least 500 rounds of m855


She getting it mounted?

just a mild dose of sedatives wonder how the mounting process would go haha

Like larger birds their size - weight ratio is not what it seems.

I'll trade 500 rounds of m855 for that thing!

i guess in my mind, "tagging" only has one meaning! Very cool she got to do that!

I'm betting there's a lot of 'fluff' there making the cat look bigger than it is. Pretty cool kitty.

Nice! Back in the 70s my mom was doing similar studies on mountain lions.

Very cool picture. The bad thing is how these libs are trying to use the Lynx to further their agenda of closing and keeping people off of public lands. I know a few years back they were hoping to find some wolverines out in the rio-san juan area thinking it would help them turn more trails into wilderness area, I don't think that panned out for them.

Awesomeee... I too have trouble believing it's only 24lbs (weight-size ratio be damned!) My house-cat weighs 13lbs and is a quarter of the size (it's all muscle though, he lifts)
