How the lynx population size changes when the hare population increases?

When the snowshoe rabbits become scarce, the lynx population is low as well. This is because the Snowshoe rabbit is the main prey of the Canada lynx. This explains that some lynx starve to death when they cannot eat the Snowshoe hare. Also, when female lynx are in a bad condition because they are starved, some cannot breed. In conclusion, whenever the Snowshoe rabbit's population decreased, the Lynx population was low also.


Why is it unusual that linches are classified as a species?

Lynxes are often considered unusual in species classification due to their close genetic relationship to other wild cats, leading to debates about whether they should be classified as distinct species or subspecies. There are four recognized species of lynx—Canada lynx, Eurasian lynx, Iberian lynx, and bobcat—each with unique adaptations and habitats, yet their similarities can blur species lines. Additionally, their hybridization in overlapping ranges raises questions about the strictness of species boundaries in taxonomy. This complexity highlights the challenges faced in defining and classifying species within the Felidae family.
