well weren't all the continents just one big land mass once? so maybe a group of lynx decided to travel to Asia and then the continents split .

+++++++++++

Actually the different species of lynx may have originated from a common ancestor, Issoire lynx, which was indigenous to Europe, so perhaps the question ought to be "How did the lynx get from Asia to North America" --- with pretty much the same answer, i.e. dispersion prior to separation of continents or over the land bridge from Asia - or since they are such great swimmers - by swimming across the Bering Strait.
