Eurasian lynx are shy, secretive and solitary animals. Females hunt with their young in order to teach them proper techniques. Males home range usually overlaps several different females' home ranges. Lynx mark their boundaries by urinating on rocks, trees and stumps.

Eurasian lynx spend time grooming themselves in order to keep clean and scratch on surfaces in order to keep their claws sharp. They are most active in early morning and late afternoon.
