Canada lynx tracks are generally larger than those of the bobcat; thicker fur may make the toe pads appear less prominent in the snow. In dirt the tracks of the lynx are 76–95 mm (3–3.75 in) long and 89–114 mm (3.5–4.5 in) wide, whereas in snow they are bigger (110 mm (4.5 in) long and 130 mm (5 in) wide).
The bobcat (Lynx rufus), also known as the wildcat, bay lynx, [2] [3] or red lynx, [4] is one of the four extant species within the medium-sized wild cat genus Lynx. Native to North America , it ranges from southern Canada through most of the contiguous United States to Oaxaca in Mexico .
Various measurements of tracks, and/or an animal's paws, and subsequent analyses of the datum, can also reveal important information about animals' physiology and their behavior. For example, measurements of lynx paws demonstrate their support capacity (on snow) to be double that of bobcat. [7]

Biologists studying the lynx in Yellowstone believe it has persisted in the park in some number since the park's creation in 1872. A four-year study completed in 2005 concluded there is a small resident population of lynx in the park, but it is rarely seen directly or indirectly (tracks) by either biologists or visitors. [10]

A blynx is a medium-sized cat, larger than a domestic cat, with ears that lean back and are black at the feathery tips (like its Canada lynx parent). The face more closely resembles that of its bobcat parent, and it may or may not have spots. Like both parents, it has a very short tail, if it has one at all.
