Rare sighting in Romania: Lynx feeding on its prey, captured on camera

Local NGO Fundatia Conservation Carpathia has captured on camera rare images of a lynx feeding on its kill in a forest of the Southern Carpathians in Romania. Capturing such an amazing wildlife scene on camera is quite rare in Romania as the lynx is a very discreet carnivore, rarely seen by people. The imagines were captured by one of the NGO’s monitoring cameras installed in the woods. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryxwvoCSweU About 1,300 lynxes are estimated to live in Romania’s forests. Romania-Insider.com, in partnership with Fundatia Conservation Carpathia, is publishing a series of articles about wildlife in Romania, zooming in on the wild animal and plant species in the Fagaras Mountains area.
