There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

In our zoo lynxes surprisingly look (at least visually) a bit taller even than leopards despite the fact that the latter is 2 times more massive. Lynx's body structure is a bit different than other bigger cats, its more "skinny", lynx sometimes looks larger than it is in reality. I mean the shape of the animals from profile not always give real impression about their real weight.
No way man, check this out

the Lynx from this pic is way greater, it could compare against the largest african leopard! and dwarfing snow leopard, Not possible! even Cheetah is a long legged cat but it isn't greatly at odds with the snow leopard which is rather short legged, so again i maintain, the lynx and clouded leopard are roughly similar sized cats (body weights) at average, no way clouded leopard would look that small in front of lynx. i am sure clouded leopards proportion is correct but the lynx proportion is exaggerated, not by the desginer though (he did awsome job) but rather due to incorrect measurements taken as pointed by Guate.
