Editing Lynx (section)

== Behavior and diet ==
The lynx is usually solitary, although a small group of lynx may travel and hunt together occasionally. Mating takes place in the late winter and once a year the female gives birth to between one and four kittens. The gestation time of the lynx is about 70 days. The young stay with the mother for one more winter, a total of around nine months, before moving out to live on their own as young adults. The lynx creates its den in crevices or under ledges. It feeds on a wide range of animals from [[white-tailed deer]], [[reindeer]], [[roe deer]], small [[red deer]], and [[chamois]], to smaller, more usual prey: [[snowshoe hare]]s, [[fish]], [[fox]]es, [[sheep]], [[squirrel]]s, [[mouse|mice]], [[Turkey (bird)|turkeys]] and other [[bird]]s, and [[goat]]s. It also eats [[lagopus|ptarmigans]], [[vole]]s, and [[grouse]].
