Humans can protect themselves from lynx by avoiding direct encounters, as these animals are generally shy and elusive. When in lynx habitats, it's best to make noise to alert them of your presence and avoid surprising them. Keeping pets leashed and supervised can also reduce the risk of attracting or provoking a lynx. If encountered, remaining calm and slowly backing away is advisable, as lynx typically do not pose a threat to humans.
