Lynx or something close spotted in St. Catharines

My house is on the Twelve Mile Creek, in St Catherines, and one day I was on a little walk in the back, as I usually do, when I saw a giant cat, so I looked it up, and it turns out to be a Lynx!

Wow, I wonder if any other readers have seen this animal in the St Catharines area - if you have, please let us know!

That would be very unusual for a Lynx to be in such a populated area, but who knows!

Lynx Spotted in Mississauga
by: Anonymous

Corner of 403 and Dundas Street. Looked to the side on the highway and saw two giant Lynx.

One eating from a tree and the other just watching the traffic.

Wild Ontario Cats
by: Anonymous

It was most likely not a Lynx as they are more northern, maybe a Bobcat. (Bobcat and Lynx are smaller that Cougars with stub tails and ear tufts)

The most common sighting in southern Ontario for a wild cat, is Cougar although nobody seems to be able to confirm the many sightings that have been reported in the last ten years - Cougars are much bigger with a long tail.

There has not even been a photograph taken. I have been a volunteer wildlife photographer for conservation efforts for four years now and have never seen any of the three native cat species that live in Ontario, as they area very elusive and shy animals as a rule.
