The Legacy of Canada lynx “GLNR-S-571” on the Superior National Forest
Early last spring a Canada lynx carcass was discovered on the edge of a Superior National Forest (NF) road by Superior NF volunteer, Gary Olson. Little remained of the carcass except some hair and most of the skeleton (the skull was missing). Through detective work, Superior NF wildlife staff were able to figure out the cat’s identity.
Canada Lynx are Thriving in the Arrowhead…for now
Lynx are broadly distributed across the extensive boreal spruce-fir forests from eastern Canada to Alaska and extend into the lower 48 in Washington, the Rocky Mountains, Minnesota, Maine and a small portion of New Hampshire. In 2008, the Superior National Forest created, and continues to maintain, a database of genetically confirmed Canada lynx to document their occurrence, persistence, and reproduction in Minnesota.
