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.

The lynx is a genus comprised of 4 species:

* The Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx): https://repository.si.edu/bitstream/hand...=y#page=42

This is the largest species, ranging in length from 80–130 cm (31.496–51.181 inches) and standing 60–75 cm (23.622–29.528 inches) at the shoulder. On average, males weigh 21 kg (46.297 lbs) and females weigh 18 kg (39.683 lbs). Males in Siberia (subspecies Lynx lynx wrangeli), where the species reaches the largest body size, can weigh up to 38 kg (83.776 lbs), or reportedly even 45 kg (99.208 lbs). The race from the Carpathian Mountains (Lynx lynx carpathicus) can also grow quite large and rival those from Siberia in body mass, in some cases: https://web.archive.org/web/200705272300...ulynx1.htm, https://web.archive.org/web/200705272300...ulynx1.htm, https://archive.org/stream/mammalsofsov2.../mode/2up/, http://catsg.org/balkanlynx/07_library/7...n_lynx.pdf
