Best Answer

The Canada lynx was listed as a threatened species in the contiguous United States in 2000. Technically, this means that it is on the endangered species list, but being threatened and endangered are different. Threatened species are species that are likely to become endangered within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant portion of their range. This is from the Montana Natural Resources Conservation Services.

Additional Information: The Canada Lynx is listed as "threatened" according to the US Fish and Wildlife Services Endangered Species Program, or US FWS-ESP. The International Union of Conservation for Nature, or the IUCN Red List, also lists the Canada Lynx, with a status of "least concern" and with a population trend of "stable". Also the Canada Lynx is listed by the Convention of International Trade in Endangered Species, or CITES, for protection under Appendix II. For more details, please see the sites listed below.

Are the lynx and the bobcat the same thing?

Yes and no. 'Lynx' is a genus of cat. There are four species in this genus. From largest to smallest. Lynx lynx - Asian lynx Lynx canadensis - Canadian lynx Lynx pardinus - Iberian lynx Lynx rufus - Red lynx (aka bobcat) I'm assuming by 'lynx' you mean the Canadian lynx. The bobcat is a separate species from the Canadian lynx. They share the same genus/family of cats, but they are not the same species.
