Lynx hunt at night and sleep during the day. They make their beds in caves, rock crevices and brush.

Do lynx live in dens?

Lynx do not create a den site – they locate their kittens under an existing feature, such as a downed log, root system, or simple ground depression surrounded by dense vegetation. Kittens stay with their mother for the first year while they learn to hunt.

What lynx sleeps at night?

Lynx are nocturnal animals (meaning they are more active at night), so during the day they will often sleep in a shelter underneath fallen trees or rock ledges. These amazing creatures must be able to travel through swampy, boggy, rocky, and snowy areas.
