Canada Lynx | ||
Cat Given Name: | Lynx | |
Common Name(s): | Bobcat, Canada Lynx | |
Other Name(s): | Wildcat, Bay Lynx, Red Lynx, Barred Bobcat, Pallid Bobcat, Loup cervier | |
Scientific Name(s): | Lynx rufus, Lynx canadensis | |
Physical Description: | A tawny feline with long legs, a short body, tufted ears and huge paws. Its coat is very dense. The animal itself, who is designed to be at its best in winter, is such a color that it is also properly camouflaged in summer. | |
Physical Statistics: | Weight: 11-37 Pounds (5-17 Kilograms) | |
Behavior: | A northern beast who, despite being rather timid, is known for a fierce and dangerous disposition. The Lynx is rare in the cats world, with the proximity of humans typically repelling them in all but the toughest seasons. | |
Social Organization: | Solitary; While Lynx territories frequently overlap, the cats themselves are solitary. They group together only to mate. | |
Danger Level: | High (All cats are vulnerable); The lynx is designed for hunting snowshoe hare, placing feral cats firmly in their ideal prey-size range and well within their hunting capabilities. In deep winter, large cats are particularly vulnerable as they are hindered by snow. | |
Approval Level*: | Administrator; Lynx are rare in the cats' forest, and are highly dangerous and keep large territories, meaning they affect more than one clan. | |
*Some creatures require approval to appear in RP. This is to make sure the Admins and Mods who need to know are fully aware of a beast currently active in their area. These ratings are mainly for those creatures that cats cannot simply drive off. |
