Description
THE COMMON LYNX. Stealth and agility characterize the movements of the Lynx, which is a restless hunter and a relentless foe of all small
animals. Few beasts are more watchful of their young than the female Wild Boar, yet even her vigilance is no match for the cunning of the Lynx. In this
picture the artful animal has invaded the porcine litter, securing a little victim at a single spring, and has then as rapidly reached a place of safety in the tree,
where, with its prey in its mouth it views, without apparent compunction, the impotent rage of the bereaved mother below. (Lynx vulgaris.)

The wild boar (Sus scrofa), also known as the wild swine or Eurasian wild pig, is a suid native to much of Eurasia, North Africa, and the Greater Sunda Islands. Human intervention has spread its range further, making the species one of the widest-ranging mammals in the world, as well as the most widely spread suiform.
The Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) is a medium-sized cat native to Siberia, Central, East, and Southern Asia, North, Central and Eastern Europe. |
