    Canada Lynx

    Canada lynx are found predominantly in the northern forests of Alaska and Canada, but smaller, threatened populations also live in northern regions of the lower 48 states.

    They stay warm with a thick winter coat, and their long legs allow them to move easily through the snow. Canada lynx also have furry, wide, padded paws that act like snowshoes to help them trek through the rugged winter terrain.
