Is no one gonna acknowledge he built a relationship with this cat for him to likely just disappear after like that lynx was probably so confused the next day when his human who helped him hunt wasn’t back Edit: this was originally supposed to be a joke but also lightly serious and the amount of people tryna hit me with facts that I A already know or B just makes y’all sound pressed like chill tf out 😂
The lynx hired the cameraman to film the cameraman he hired to film him use the same cameraman in a pincer attack. Max must be rich in the lynx community
It's happened with wildlife cameramen before. Especially with animals that have never seen humans before. Look up the story of the leopard seal trying to teach a human how to hunt penguins! It's really funny!
actually i was thinking that i bet this cat's the humans clumsiness and assuming said clumsiness would prevent the him from eating it decided to follow him around to scavenge on his corpse when he dies, but in the meantime twill reap the rewards of him scaring up all other game within a 30 yard radius
"It's really special to be this close to a Canadian Cameraman in the wild and not be disrupting his natural behaviours." -The other cameraman, probably
The cameraman's cameraman had a serial stalker who was being trailed by a determined ex-cop dragged out of retirement, who himself is trying to stay one step ahead of the crooked Mounty chief who wanted him off the case. Bigfoot watched it all play out, mildly amused.
What a legend. Imagine spending 76 days, 2 and a half months out in those kinds of conditions, All for one awesome camera shot. Sam Ellis is a true artist of his craft. Mind-blowing footage. 12/10
I grew up in the woods, and we had the elusive lynx around us my whole upbringing. No-one ever saw it, we'd sometimes see tracks in the snow when out walking deep in the woods, but that's it. Then in my 20s I got two kittens. And lynx tracks in the snow started to appear around my house on a daily basis. I usually had a window open for my kittens to get in and out, so I was kinda worried. One day I got home, the two kittens had brought a big bird inside and feathers were littered all across the room. I assumed they found a dead bird, it was too big for them to catch, probably a juvenile blackbird(not yet fully black). Then, I noticed the kittens, who were about 6-7 months old, started leaving mice outside. And every morning the mice would be gone, and new lynx tracks would be seen around the place they would leave the mice. In the end I saw the lynx crossing the fields, and I took my cats and lifted them up so they'd get a look. It's hard to know what a cat is thinking, but they looked very comfortable and familiar with the lynx. It's the first time I ever saw a real lynx, and it didn't look too bothered about me being there at all. Maybe the lynx had lost her own kittens and was thus attracted to my kittens? They started mutually feeding each other? It's one of the most precious and weirdest experiences of my life, lynx has been one of my favourite animals since I was a kid.
This is the best documentary, a cameraman recording lynx and the cameraman gets recorded by another cameraman and just maybe.... That other cameraman get recorded by Lynx.
Grace Garcia Lmao right!! Most felines like tigers, lions, and cheetahs also show similar habits to domestic cats (play, grooming, human interactions, etc.) Goes to show how much a house cat is still connected to their roots
I think it's the other way around. All felines have the same basic natural behavior that we consider cute and playful, so it's more like house cats still acting like wild ones.
Okay let think positively, the encounter of the cameramen and the lynx helps the lynx for a chance to secure a successful hunt that could feed him for a week.

I couldn't have said that any better! I lived in Alaska for 5 years and loved every second of it except the cost of living! But seeing the wild live outside my window or when I went for a walk was the most amazing thing in my 38 years except being a paramedic firefighter trying to help someone and succeed and changing there worst day of their life possibly to be there best!

That lynx is smart! He literally used the camera man to his advantage to catch the rabbit. He moved around the rabbit until the rabbit was directly between him and the camera man, and then chased the rabbit directly at the camera man. You can see at one point just as the rabbit is running past the tree, it sees the camera man and appears to be caught of guard (5:24) which makes him veer left but he loses some balance and the lynx catches up to the rabbit in no time! What a brilliant strategy!
I find it amazing actually, and it kinda proves a theory I have that canines weren't the only creatures ancient man bonded with through hunting. And this at least shows that wild felines are willing and able to hunt with humans. To me, what happens feels more like the feline had been eating for days and days, catching rabbits, and realized his hunting companion had never ate one time. and as such, chased a meal directly to him. I feel like the cat was trying to give the cameraman a meal, much in the same way normal house cats will bring their owners kills for a meal. my reasoning for this is the cat directly moved into the rabbits line of sight. these animals dont have binocular vision like we do, rabbits have vision like deer and elk n stuff, they have an extremely wide field of view, and the cat knows this. That cat could have easily came from the rear and made that kill way easier for itself, instead, it deliberately ran it towards the cameraman. I think the cat expect the camera man to catch and kill that rabbit.
Imagine spending two and a half months to get this brief footage. Some perseverance it takes to film wildlife. And we get to sit in the comfort of our homes and enjoy these video clips. Feel grateful!
Oh yeah, so grateful to the guy with everybody's dream job. Kind of like how we should be grateful to the pro athletes who get paid millions to play their favorite game. [Rolls Eyes]
@@JamesEmeryHill it's not like they've spent their lives training and building up their bodies to earn those millions. Out of all the professions to be salty about. You pick one that requires some of the most effort on the side of the professional.
I can't imagine how rough it can get to be out in these environment trying to film noteworthy animal behavior day in and day out! Definitely am grateful for these guys.
Photographers and cameramen are a patient bunch, sitting for hours upon hours just for one shot. Combing through a hundred "exact same" pictures to get the light just right.
Wildlife camera operators go to amazing lengths to get the footage. There's a behind the scenes from Netflix's wildlife series that shows how they filmed it over 3 years.
Max actually flanked the rabbit to attack it in a pincer movement in unison with the cameraman. An admirable military mind. I, Commander Shepard of the Normandy, declare this cat the official mascot of the N7.
@@charliebockover not natural so us humans are not part of nature yeah no you are right we are not animals we are something completly out of this world. it is natural it has been known for a long time that other species help each other so it benefits both i say this is excactlly what is happening in the video. lynx can not catch a few rabbits fast enough and he wants to save energy so it uses a human to corner a rabbit and the human gets his videos.
And that's exactly what he did. Amazing because that lynx took the longest route around towards that rabbit, and you know he did it so that the rabbit would run toward the cameraman and then hesitate, giving the lynx a chance to grab him. Great stuff.
daddy stinkmeaner Lynx: Dude, you’ve been following me for a month now? What do you want? Sam: Just to get some video of you to bring back to my fellow humans? Would you like me to leave? Lynx: no you’re good, hope I’m not bothering you Sam: not at all, are you sure? Lynx: Yes. I’m going to take a nap and then we’ll grab some rabbit for dinner later tonight.
Story time: When I was really young my father found an abandoned kitten on the side of the road. He picked her up and brought her home. She got a bit bigger after a while, we were confused on how big she was for just a cat. We went to the vet and it turned out she was a lynx. Her and I were very close, she would cuddle me and love on me, we were that close. One day one of my dads friends left the door open and we never saw her again.
sorry to say but i bet she would’ve returned to you. something may have happened and she couldn’t return. but let’s just hope she wanted to move and start her own family. maybe one day she’ll show up with a litter of kittens, you’ll keep one and start all over again.
Beautiful story with a sad ending for you. But she heard the call of the wild and did was natural to her, you can be proud you saved the life of a beautiful animal and provided her with a foster family for a while. Our domestic cats have had millenia to get used to humans, can't expect the same behaviors from wild animals.
What a special story. She brought much joy to your life. Even though she left to be the wild cat she was meant to be, I bet she thought of you with fondness.
Don't worry. If she goes out and never return, she knew that she's ready for the wild life. Animals knew by instinct what they could take. Especially cats. She'll surely return to you at an unexpected time, at that time, you have to be ready to let her go again because she's probably only come to check on you. And she's a lynx. the Wild is strong in her. The nature called for her and she answered it. As people said, fledglings will surely fly away from the nest. I'm sure she loves you but her nature calling is strong. I'm sure she's fine out there.
That Mad Max decided to accept Sam's presence is interesting but this vid also provides insight into the patience and commitment required to make the remarkable vids of wildlife most of us take for granted. A sequence of less than a minute can take an experienced team months if not years to acquire. Their dedication is admirable and unless a vid goes viral (very rare) I doubt they make even minimum wage for all the hours they invest. Thanks to CBC for posting this.
Perhaps the lynx is chasing rabbits towards the cameraman on purpose, so the rabbit will have to turn predictably to ovoid the man. Possibly giving the lynx an extra chance to gain ground on the rabbit.
Yep. And it worked! He caught that one. It's funny because he completely went around the rabbit, even to the point where he was not charging it from the back but from the side - which wouldn't make sense if the cameraman wasn't on the opposite side!
"even to the point where he was not charging it from the back but from the side - which wouldn't make sense": could also have been to stay down wind, so the rabbit wouldn't smell him. I do agree he was probably using the position of the cameraman in his favor.
What was happening was that Sam was a distraction. Normally rabbits(and similar small prey creatures) have very different reactions to humans compared to their natural predators. They'll keep an eye on you but they don't immediately bolt like they would with what they know is going to try to kill them. So, while the rabbits were focused on the loud and clumsy(relatively speaking) human, Max could stalk them more easily.
Amazing! I think we never fully appreciate what actually goes into a few seconds of footage in a nature documentary. Thanks for sharing this 'behind the scenes' story.
In Northern Ontario, I got to see a lynx mother and her kittens crossing the road in front of our vehicle. It was incredible! She was calling them and had to go back and get the last one, because he was being stubborn 😄
First Camera Man: I've been out here for hours. Can't get any footage. Can't sneak up on them. Can't even see them. Second Camera Man: Captures First Camera Man and Lynx in same shot over and over, often just feet apart.
C.R. E. If you watch the video it's pretty clear that the cat used the camera man to trap the rabbit. It( the rabbit) sees the guy and turns right into it's(the cat's) path.
C.R. E. Why exactly are you arguing with me again? You seem to agree with my original post. Like I said, "cat used that guy to his advantage, very wise." Crawl back under your bridge, troll.
Even the Canadian Lynx was polite after stalking and catching that snowshoe rabbit by apologizing for that PG-13 violent film scene, offering to do another take! 😂 Sam the Canadian cameraman also was kind enough to apologize an edit out the previous days film footage that he captured of a gratuitous bunny rabbit sex-scene that would have offended parents w/children, while upping the film to an R-18 rating! 😂
KaptKan1 A person likes Sam wouldn't be doing what he does if he didn't enjoy it. I'm sure he prefers it to sitting behind a desk all day, working on an assembly line or helping rude customers in some service job, nevermind having to take crap from a grumpy boss and then driving back and forth through traffic each day. Myself, I can't take that much cold but Sam's young, healthy and used to it. He probably considers frozen snot not much more than an inconvenience.
Well myself I have managed to video kittens being born not many cats will allow that mother cats usually go hide to have their kittens in my case the mother really trusted me it is all about building a relationship with the animal
I'd imagine the lynx gave him several opportunities to try to sneak up on him if he had any ill will. He also didn't try to sneak up and take any of Max's kills or try to harass him in any way. When he never took any of those opportunities, it must have become apparent that he was just there watching. Perhaps then he decided that the company was nice, and clearly Sam, despite not moving, became a decent hunting partner because he made the rabbit lose it's lead to turn away from Sam in the chase. Very neat to watch the video but I'd love to have been there to see this relationship develop. Beautiful shot in the end.
Makes sense to me. I've seen domestic cats do similar... when they turn their back on someone but keep an ear locked onto them, for example. It's not a stretch to think that a bigger cat, with just as much need to be smart like that, would to the same.
The lynx led the camera guy as noise bait to cause the rabbits to shelter and disguise instead of fleeing while using camera's noise to mask its own movement. The lynx trained the camera man to use clumsy to feed it.
Yeah, who was that second cameraman? It wasn't just Sam the cat got used to, it was at least two people. Hmmm... theory: 2nd camera was the grizzled, experienced cameraman who isn't all that photogenic, so they made the story be about the young pretty boy cameraman.
I believe some of these very intelligent animals sometimes do become socialized to certain humans but I think most states in USA have laws against "keeping" or "harassing" these animals if you are a cat it is very dangerous to approach a human in the wild as many of the humans may be inclined to take a shot at you! (and they do take livestock and poultry)

Never think a cat doesn't see its prey. I've seen my cat walk straight past a rabbit and then turn and ambush from behind. I don't know if he did it to gain advantage or for the thrill but he even kept his head straight when he passed but I could see his eyes looking at bunny.
Jason Richardson sometimes cats pretend they don't see the mouse etc getting away so they can chase it a bit more and have more fun. Unless they're dumb (like my cat) they always know where the prey is exactly
Jason Richardson observing how my cat play with me. I noticed that when I throw her toy she pretends not caring about it, walking pass it. But with a swift move turns back to catch her toy. Or sometimes she hid somewhere and attack her toy. I think it's their way of hunting. They simply know how to play the game. They are a very smart pradator.
The cameraman was such a decent hard working lad🤯✊ He really deserves that footage he caught. You could see how much that ment to him😢😢 Hope has more luck in the future 🙏👏🤞🙏
nature videographers are dedicated and awesome. seriously some of the things they capture you would have absolutely no hope of ever seeing in your lifetime. it's incredible.
Lynx: Dude, you’ve been following me around for like Months! WTF ? Human: I know, sorry. But humans want to know how you live. Should I leave you alone & go home? Lynx: Nahhh, it’s all good Bro.
"The rabbit was completely oblivious." A completely ignorant statement. The rabbit relies on staying still since the cat hunts by movement, not scent. At some point, the rabbit realizes holding still has failed and it flees.
Rabbit: "This is my time to shine." Snow Lynx: "Rabbit stew? Well, not this time. Must help the photographer. Hope he shows my 'good side..'" Photographer: "I'll pay you two later."
Lynx is an amazing creature. Saw one once when i was with my parents and uncle at a cabin far up in the mountains. (Norway). IT was far away, just staring at me. I think i was 10. I didnt want to stare back, because of the, losing a stare battle. Didnt want it to feel unsafe. It got a couple meters closer. But i wanted to take a good look at it, but when i lifted my head up. It ran away and hid. After that. Every fish i got. I put it on the snow quite far away from the cabin. Splashed some fish blood here and there. Saw nothing the first day. But on the second, i had put two fishes there. When i checked the second day. There were Lynx prints! I was so stoked. I continued fishing and putting it there. Then we saw bear prints aswell at that spot so i stopped. Didnt see any bears. Thank god.
We take these shots for granted, that is a lot of hard work for a few seconds.

The lynx literally used the cameraman as a scarecrow to corner the rabbit between it and the cameraman, it's bloody brilliant.
I know, and you could see the rabbit notice th3 cameraman ad be like “uh oh” and quickly turn

Imagine spending two and a half months to get this brief footage. Some perseverance it takes to film wildlife. And we get to sit in the comfort of our homes
and enjoy these video clips. Feel grateful!
Oh yeah, so grateful to the guy with everybody's dream job. Kind of like how we should be grateful to the pro athletes who get paid millions to play their favorite game. [Rolls Eyes]
@@JamesEmeryHill it's not like they've spent their lives training and building up their bodies to earn those millions. Out of all the professions to be salty about. You pick one that requires some of the most effort on the side of the professional.
Basicly thats why i compare Wild life cameraman like Snipers haha
@@JamesEmeryHillThis is new logic. We should only appreciate people who hate doing their jobs.
I can't imagine how rough it can get to be out in these environment trying to film noteworthy animal behavior day in and day out! Definitely am grateful for these guys.
That guy has an insane amount of patience, props to him for continuously trying to get the shot.
Photographers and cameramen are a patient bunch, sitting for hours upon hours just for one shot. Combing through a hundred "exact same" pictures to get the light just right.
Wildlife camera operators go to amazing lengths to get the footage. There's a behind the scenes from Netflix's wildlife series that shows how they filmed it over 3 years.
After 70 something days in the cold, hell yeahhh he has patience!!
In Sweden we have a saying that translates like this:
He who waits for something worth waiting for never waits too long.
Which applies here.
Don't shoot Lynx!
Then the cameraman left, and Max was left wondering where his little helper went - catching stuff was so much easier with him around...
Bro... :(
Man.. don't make me cry :(

Huge thanks to guys like Sam putting months of hard physical work to give an insight to all of us fascinated by wildlife 🙌🏻

Max actually flanked the rabbit to attack it in a pincer movement in unison with the cameraman. An admirable military mind. I, Commander Shepard of the Normandy, declare this cat the official mascot of the N7.

Story time:
When I was really young my father found an abandoned kitten on the side of the road. He picked her up and brought her home. She got a bit bigger after a while, we were confused on how big she was for just a cat. We went to the vet and it turned out she was a lynx. Her and I were very close, she would cuddle me and love on me, we were that close. One day one of my dads friends left the door open and we never saw her again.
That was impressive and sad too. After all those times together with u, she never coming back to you again...
sorry to say but i bet she would’ve returned to you. something may have happened and she couldn’t return. but let’s just hope she wanted to move and start her own family. maybe one day she’ll show up with a litter of kittens, you’ll keep one and start all over again.
Beautiful story with a sad ending for you. But she heard the call of the wild and did was natural to her, you can be proud you saved the life of a beautiful animal and provided her with a foster family for a while.
Our domestic cats have had millenia to get used to humans, can't expect the same behaviors from wild animals.
What a special story. She brought much joy to your life. Even though she left to be the wild cat she was meant to be, I bet she thought of you with fondness.
Don't worry. If she goes out and never return, she knew that she's ready for the wild life. Animals knew by instinct what they could take. Especially cats. She'll surely return to you at an unexpected time, at that time, you have to be ready to let her go again because she's probably only come to check on you. And she's a lynx. the Wild is strong in her. The nature called for her and she answered it. As people said, fledglings will surely fly away from the nest. I'm sure she loves you but her nature calling is strong.
I'm sure she's fine out there.
That Mad Max decided to accept Sam's presence is interesting but this vid also provides insight into the patience and commitment required to make the remarkable vids of wildlife most of us take for granted. A sequence of less than a minute can take an experienced team months if not years to acquire. Their dedication is admirable and unless a vid goes viral (very rare) I doubt they make even minimum wage for all the hours they invest.
Thanks to CBC for posting this.

Perhaps the lynx is chasing rabbits towards the cameraman on purpose, so the rabbit will have to turn predictably to ovoid the man. Possibly giving the lynx an extra chance to gain ground on the rabbit.
My exact thinking
Yep. And it worked! He caught that one.
It's funny because he completely went around the rabbit, even to the point where he was not charging it from the back but from the side - which wouldn't make sense if the cameraman wasn't on the opposite side!
Yes ! Thats why they said that the lynx realised Sam can be beneficial. :P
"even to the point where he was not charging it from the back but from the side - which wouldn't make sense": could also have been to stay down wind, so the rabbit wouldn't smell him. I do agree he was probably using the position of the cameraman in his favor.
What was happening was that Sam was a distraction. Normally rabbits(and similar small prey creatures) have very different reactions to humans compared to their natural predators. They'll keep an eye on you but they don't immediately bolt like they would with what they know is going to try to kill them. So, while the rabbits were focused on the loud and clumsy(relatively speaking) human, Max could stalk them more easily.
When you're in Canada, even a lynx is Canadian...
That tends to be how it works.
Wow, I haven't thought of that. You're a genius.
lol.. well they do live in the north so
Well I’m Canadian, and this comment is amazing
Here in Washington state in the USA we have Canadian Lynxes too..
The thing about lynxes is that they are cute but also fluffy but also cute yet also fluffy but, most importantly, cute.
But also fluffy
I felt stupid reading that.
calvinjluther And yep there natural born killers. And fluffy and cute? All I could think of when I read your comment, Doh!
Cute but if you try and Pet, they'll bite your face off. So be like Cameraman Sam and just go for the cute photos of cuteness.
You mean " But most importantly, *c o o t* "?
Amazing! I think we never fully appreciate what actually goes into a few seconds of footage in a nature documentary. Thanks for sharing this 'behind the scenes' story.
In Northern Ontario, I got to see a lynx mother and her kittens crossing the road in front of our vehicle. It was incredible! She was calling them and had to go back and get the last one, because he was being stubborn 😄
Or spooked by unknown sounds & the open road. Poor little thing😏

C.R. E. Why exactly are you arguing with me again? You seem to agree with my original post. Like I said, "cat used that guy to his advantage, very wise." Crawl back under your bridge, troll.
I was almost expecting the cat to bring the rabbit to Sam as a gift.
Canadians are an incredible species. 🇨🇦
Even the Canadian Lynx was polite after stalking and catching that snowshoe rabbit by apologizing for that PG-13 violent film scene, offering to do another take! 😂
Sam the Canadian cameraman also was kind enough to apologize an edit out the previous days film footage that he captured of a gratuitous bunny rabbit sex-scene that would have offended parents w/children, while upping the film to an R-18 rating! 😂
😂❤️
It must be an honor to be able to photograph such a magnificent animal in his own natural habitat. Wonderful job!
It'd be an honour* since they're in Canada
I agree. Just watching this is a thrill, I can't imagine actually being there.
KaptKan1 A person likes Sam wouldn't be doing what he does if he didn't enjoy it. I'm sure he prefers it to sitting behind a desk all day, working on an assembly line or helping rude customers in some service job, nevermind having to take crap from a grumpy boss and then driving back and forth through traffic each day. Myself, I can't take that much cold but Sam's young, healthy and used to it. He probably considers frozen snot not much more than an inconvenience.
Well myself I have managed to video kittens being born not many cats will allow that mother cats usually go hide to have their kittens in my case the mother really trusted me it is all about building a relationship with the animal
This cat knows how to use this guy, to catch his prey .Smart Lynx
I'd imagine the lynx gave him several opportunities to try to sneak up on him if he had any ill will. He also didn't try to sneak up and take any of Max's kills or try to harass him in any way. When he never took any of those opportunities, it must have become apparent that he was just there watching. Perhaps then he decided that the company was nice, and clearly Sam, despite not moving, became a decent hunting partner because he made the rabbit lose it's lead to turn away from Sam in the chase. Very neat to watch the video but I'd love to have been there to see this relationship develop. Beautiful shot in the end.
Makes sense to me. I've seen domestic cats do similar... when they turn their back on someone but keep an ear locked onto them, for example. It's not a stretch to think that a bigger cat, with just as much need to be smart like that, would to the same.
BazilRat Yes and a non-domesticated cat has found their niche and is the best at what they do
The Lynx is more healthy than the average human mind...this is obvious
different animals have different behaubiours, so maybe this one just doesn't have a reason to do so
Thank you for sacrificing 3 months (at least) of your life so that we could witness this. Thank you.
So basically, the cameraman became the Lynx's hunting dog.
Basically the cameraman became the Lynx's chef dropping off rabbits..
The lynx led the camera guy as noise bait to cause the rabbits to shelter and disguise instead of fleeing while using camera's noise to mask its own movement. The lynx trained the camera man to use clumsy to feed it.
Exactly! Or the cameraman just bought a shitload of rabbits...
OVER THE LINE! Although that’s doubtful
Oh, come off it, this dude is not Marty Stouffer.
So it's true that Canadians, even lynxes, are polite & friendly.
Moron.
Why the aggressivity?

Sam who cares about sam, i wanna hear the story of the cameraman who got all the shots filming both sam and the lynx and the rabbit

They’re the real hero!🤣
But then all you would want is the story of cameraman following them around
Yeah, who was that second cameraman? It wasn't just Sam the cat got used to, it was at least two people.
Hmmm... theory: 2nd camera was the grizzled, experienced cameraman who isn't all that photogenic, so they made the story be about the young pretty boy cameraman.
This is how domestication started waaaay back.
Animals realised that you can use humans as roadblock, essentially make us moving traps.
I believe some of these very intelligent animals sometimes do become socialized to certain humans but I think most states in USA have laws against "keeping" or "harassing" these animals
if you are a cat it is very dangerous to approach a human in the wild as many of the humans may be inclined to take a shot at you! (and they do take livestock and poultry)

@@hanswangnstvold435 Not to mention the DRONE! I'm beginning to suspect that this lynx may be hard of hearing!
Never think a cat doesn't see its prey. I've seen my cat walk straight past a rabbit and then turn and ambush from behind. I don't know if he did it to gain advantage or for the thrill but he even kept his head straight when he passed but I could see his eyes looking at bunny.
Jason Richardson sometimes cats pretend they don't see the mouse etc getting away so they can chase it a bit more and have more fun. Unless they're dumb (like my cat) they always know where the prey is exactly
Wild cats hunt to fill their bellies, domestic cats hunt for sport.
Jason Richardson observing how my cat play with me. I noticed that when I throw her toy she pretends not caring about it, walking pass it. But with a swift move turns back to catch her toy. Or sometimes she hid somewhere and attack her toy. I think it's their way of hunting. They simply know how to play the game. They are a very smart pradator.
The cameraman was such a decent hard working lad🤯✊ He really deserves that footage he caught. You could see how much that ment to him😢😢 Hope has more luck in the future 🙏👏🤞🙏

Lynx is an amazing creature. Saw one once when i was with my parents and uncle at a cabin far up in the mountains. (Norway). IT was far away, just staring at me. I think i was 10. I didnt want to stare back, because of the, losing a stare battle. Didnt want it to feel unsafe. It got a couple meters closer. But i wanted to take a good look at it, but when i lifted my head up. It ran away and hid.
After that. Every fish i got. I put it on the snow quite far away from the cabin. Splashed some fish blood here and there.
Saw nothing the first day. But on the second, i had put two fishes there. When i checked the second day. There were Lynx prints! I was so stoked. I continued fishing and putting it there. Then we saw bear prints aswell at that spot so i stopped.
Didnt see any bears. Thank god.
No glory for the second camera man.
