A video of a mysterious feline traipsing through snowy woods in Lexington, Michigan, in February captivated locals who pondered what the animal could possibly be. The Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) recently confirmed the animal was, in fact, an extremely rare lynx. What we can’t verify is how the lynx came to be there — was it a wild lynx traveling on its own, an escaped captive animal or some other scenario," the Michigan DNR told WDIV-TV. "Lynx tail tip is all black and bobcats have black on the top and white on the bottom of the tail tip. Lynx have larger paws that act like snowshoes to hunt prey in deep snow," the Michigan DNR described in a previous post online.
