occurs in all of the areas listed above except Newfoundland
[47,48,106,114], and Lynx canadensis subsolanus occurs in
Newfoundland only [47,48,106]. The following lists are
speculative and are based on the habitat characteristics and
species composition of communities Canada lynxes are known to
occupy. There is not conclusive evidence that Canada lynxes
occur in all the habitat types listed, and some community types,
especially those used rarely, may have been omitted. See

success of Canada lynxes fluctuates in an approximate 10-year
cyclical manner corresponding with the snowshoe hare cycle.
During periods of snowshoe hare abundance, Canada lynx birth
rates typically range from 73% to 93% for adults and 33% to 100%
for yearlings [80,97]. One to two years following a snowshoe
hare decline, the birth rate declines . Adult fema
