“…found that three female kittens remained in or near their natal ranges during the entire period for which they were monitored. This trend has been noted in other solitary felids (Eisenberg 1981;Sundquist 1981;Ross and Jalkotzy 1992) and suggested by and for Canada lynx. Secondly, adult females may retain amicable contact with their female offspring throughout their life.…”

Once found throughout the Rocky Mountains and forests of the northern states, the lynx now hides in pockets of its former range while feeding mostly on small animals like snowshoe hares. A team of government and university scientists review the newest scientific knowledge of this unique cat's history, distribution, and ecology. The chapters on this web site provide information for current scientific and public debates regarding the fate of the lynx in the United States. Chapters look at the relationships among lynx, its habitat, and its prey. The attributes of northern versus southern lynx populations are compared and contrasted. The authors caution against making decisions without enough knowledge and show where we lack information. While the authors present the latest preliminary research results on lynx and offer some qualified insights into lynx management, the book's intent is to assess the current state of knowledge regarding lynx.Hard copies of the report will be available in late 1999 from the University Press of Colorado,

“…Such behaviour is well documented in other large solitary cats (Schaller, 1967;Sunquist, 1981;Rabinowitz and Nottingham, 1986). In areas with small or isolated populations, cats may simply be able to avoid each other without advertising their presence through behaviour such as marking (Schaller and Crawshaw, 1980).…”

The clouded leopard Neofelis nebulosa has already disappeared from part of its range in southern Asia; it is classified as vulnerable by IUCN and is on Appendix I of CITES. Little is known about this secretive forest-dweller anywhere in its range, and the sparse information needs to be augmented so that effective conservation measures may be taken if necessary. In early 1986 the senior author travelled through the interior of Malaysian Borneo, staying at villages and timber camps, to assess the status of the species in the region and to find out more about its behaviour.

“…The incisors help the canines maintain a firm hold on struggling prey during capture, and are used in feeding to remove fur or feathers from a kill and to remove bits of flesh from bones (Kitchener, 1991 (Pocock, 1916b (Haglund, 1966;Kruuk &.
