During
clear nights in March, it happens that we hear shouting / barking lynx males
that pass our farm. It’s mating season and they are looking for a female.
Rännberg, the nature reserve we live at, is a well-known mountain where lynx
mate.

For me, is
probably the sound of lynx males more associated with wilderness, than howling
wolves. I have heard them so much over the years that it’s almost lost its
magic. But why choose, it is better to hear both wolf and lynx at the same
time, right?

It has
actually happened to me on one occasion. I recorded a howling wolf when
suddenly a shouting lynx interfering in concert. It was a pretty okay
experience of nature!
