By creating large temporal variation in resource availability between seasons it becomes challenging for carnivores to secure a regular year-round supply of food. Some predators may respond by following their migratory prey, however, most predators are sedentary and experience strong seasonal variation in resource availability. Increased predation on alternative prey may dampen such seasonal resource fluctuations, but reduced reproduction rates in predators is a predicted consequence of migratory primary prey behavior that has received little empirical attention. We used data from 23 GPS collared Eurasian lynx Lynx lynx monitored during 2007–2013 in northern Norway, to examine how spatio-temporal variation in the migratory behavior of semi-domestic reindeer Rangifer tarandus influences lynx spatial organization and reproductive success using estimates of seasonal home range overlap and breeding success.

  • Eurasian Lynx 1 Eurasian Lynx
    Eurasian Lynx 1 Eurasian Lynx Eurasian Lynx[1] Conservation status [2] Least Concern (IUCN 3.1) Scientific classification Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Mammalia Order: Carnivora Family: Felidae Genus: Lynx Species: L. lynx Binomial name Lynx lynx (Linnaeus, 1758) Eurasian Lynx 2 Eurasian Lynx range Synonyms Felis lynx (Linnaeus, 1758) The Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) is a medium-sized cat native to European and Siberian forests, South Asia and East Asia. It is also known as the European lynx, common lynx, the northern lynx, and the Siberian or Russian lynx. While its conservation status has been classified as "Least Concern", populations of Eurasian lynx have been reduced or extirpated from western Europe, where it is now being reintroduced. Physical characteristics The Eurasian lynx is the largest lynx species, ranging in length from 80 to 130 cm (31 to 51 in) and standing about 70 cm (28 in) at the shoulder. The tail measures 11 to 25 cm (4.3 to 9.8 in) in length. Males usually weigh from 18 to 30 kg (40 to 66 lb) and females weigh 10 to 21 kg (22 to 46 lb).[3] [4] [5] Male lynxes from Siberia, where the species reaches the largest body size, can weigh up to 38 kg (84 lb) or reportedly even 45 kg (99 lb).[6] [7] It has powerful legs, with large webbed and furred paws that act like snowshoes. It also possesses a short "bobbed" tail with an all-black tip, black tufts of hair on its ears, and a long grey-and-white ruff.

    Species 2014 Annual ReportSpecies the Species of 2014 Survival Commission and the Global Species Programme Species ISSUE 56 2014 Annual Report of the Species Survival Commission and the Global Species Programme • 2014 Spotlight on High-level Interventions IUCN SSC • IUCN Red List at 50 • Specialist Group Reports Ethiopian Wolf (Canis simensis), Endangered. © Martin Harvey Muhammad Yazid Muhammad © Amazing Species: Bleeding Toad The Bleeding Toad, Leptophryne cruentata, is listed as Critically Endangered on The IUCN Red List of Threatened SpeciesTM. It is endemic to West Java, Indonesia, specifically around Mount Gede, Mount Pangaro and south of Sukabumi. The Bleeding Toad’s scientific name, cruentata, is from the Latin word meaning “bleeding” because of the frog’s overall reddish-purple appearance and blood-red and yellow marbling on its back. Geographical range The population declined drastically after the eruption of Mount Galunggung in 1987. It is Knowledge believed that other declining factors may be habitat alteration, loss, and fragmentation. Experts Although the lethal chytrid fungus, responsible for devastating declines (and possible Get Involved extinctions) in amphibian populations globally, has not been recorded in this area, the sudden decline in a creekside population is reminiscent of declines in similar amphibian species due to the presence of this pathogen. Only one individual Bleeding Toad was sighted from 1990 to 2003. Part of the range of Bleeding Toad is located in Gunung Gede Pangrango National Park. Future conservation actions should include population surveys and possible captive breeding plans. The production of the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species™ is made possible through the IUCN Red List Partnership.

Almost two years had passed after my dissertation on the lumberjacks of Finnish Lapland. I was still occupied with forest history, but I knew that in order to develop as a scientist, I had to leave the familiar ri­ vers and fells of Finnish Lapland, and do research on something else. Professor Juhani U.E. Lehtonen at the University of Helsinki gave me a hint: there are copies of fieldwork notes written by U.T. Sirelius in our archive. Give them a look, Lehtonen advised me, no doubt with the hope that his student would not ignore one of the emphases of the ethnology department's activities, issues concerning Finno-Ugric peoples, including therefore both East Europe and Russia.

  • Lynx Lynx - (Linnaeus, 1758)
    Lynx lynx - (Linnaeus, 1758) ANIMALIA - CHORDATA - MAMMALIA - CARNIVORA - FELIDAE - Lynx - lynx Common Names: Lynx (French), Shiluus Mii (Mongolian), LINCE BOREAL (), Evroasiin Shiluus (), Lince Boreal (Spanish), Eurasian Lynx (English), Lince (Spanish; Castilian), Lynx Bor?al (French) Synonyms: No Synonyms Taxonomic Note: Balkan lynx was for the first time described an own subspecies in 1941 by the Bulgarian zoologist Ivan Buresh (Buresh, 1941). The name that Buresh gave to the Balkan lynx was Lyx lyx balcanicus. Later on Serbian mammologist Gjorge Miric did much more thoroughly morphometric measurements on skulls of 29 lynx speciements from the Balkans and concluded differences in the size with the specimens from the neighboring Carpathian population, as well as with specimens from Scandinavia and Caucasus (Miric, 1978). Miric changed the subspecies name of the Balkan lynx into Lynx lynx martinoi with no further references to the previously given name by Buresh.The importance of conservation actions was underline by new and preliminary results from genetic research, indicating that the Balkan lynx is indeed different from the Carpathian lynx and should be accepted as a distinct subspecies (Gugolz et al ., 2008; Breitenmoser et al . 2008). Red List Assessment Assessment Information Assessor(s): Dime Melovski, Macedonian Ecological Society Evaluator(s): (Not specified) Contributor(s): (Not specified) Assessment Rationale Europe The Eurasian lynx was driven extinct in much of western and central Europe over the last few centuries. However, over the past few decades, as a result of conservation action, the status of the species has improved. Reintroductions have restored it to some areas of its former range, although many of these reintroduced populations remain fragmented and extremely small.
