Madera abwino kwambiri ndi owoloka dambo. Mutha kupeza steppe lynx kumtunda wopitilira 3000 mita.
Kufotokozera za adani
Nyama zakutchire zimasiyana ndi mphalapala zazing'ono pang'ono komanso zazing'ono, zopindika. Akuluakulu amakula mpaka 82 cm m'litali, pomwe mchira umafikira masentimita 30. Unyinji wa nyama umasiyana makilogalamu 11 mpaka 19. Chikhalidwe cha nyama zakufa ndi kupezeka kwa burashi kumapeto kwa makutu, kutalika kwake kuli pafupifupi 5 cm.
Kapangidwe kapadera ka mawondo ndi kukhalapo kwa tsitsi loluka pamapadi a burashi zimalola kuti nyama ziziyenda mumchenga mosavuta. Nyama zam'manja zili ndi ubweya wakuda koma wawufupi wofanana ndi wa cougar yaku North America (yofiirira yofiirira pamwambapa, yoyera pansi ndi zodera zakuda pambali pake. Makutu akunja ndi ngayaye zimakhalanso zamdima. Mthunzi wa ubweya wa lynx umadalira komwe amakhala komanso momwe amasaka.
Ngakhale amaoneka opanda vuto komanso owoneka bwino, nyama zakufa ndi adani amphamvu komanso owopsa. Amakhala ndi zilonda zakuthwa, mothandizidwa ndi omwe amapyoza kukhosi kwa wovulalayo, pomwe nsagwada zamphamvu zimawalola kuti agwire nyama. Kuphatikiza pa mano ake owopsa, nyama ili ndi zikhadabo zomwe zimafanana ndi masamba. Ndi chithandizo chawo, nyama yakufa imadula nyamayo, ndikupatula nyama mopepuka.
Makhalidwe
Ng'ombezi zimatha kuchita popanda kumwa madzi kwa nthawi yayitali. Nyamazo zimakhala usiku, koma zimathanso kuyamba kusaka m'mawa ozizira. The steppe lynx gait amafanana ndi nyalugwe, koma sindiwo othamanga. Nyama zolusa zimatha kukwera mitengo mosavuta ndipo zimadziwika kuti ndizabwino kwambiri kulumpha.

Kubereka
Mkazi amauza wamwamuna kuti ndi wokonzeka kukwatirana mothandizidwa ndi zinthu zapadera zamankhwala zomwe zimapezeka mkodzo. Ndikumva kununkhiza kwawo, yamphongo imayamba kutsatira wosankhidwayo. Muthanso kukopa mnzanu ndi mawu, omwe amafanana ndi chifuwa. Amuna angapo amatha kusamalira wamkazi m'modzi nthawi imodzi. Chifukwa cha mpikisano, amuna amatha kutenga nawo mbali pankhondoyi. Mkazi amatha kusankha yekha mnzake, ndipo akazi amakonda amuna achikulire komanso anzeru.
Pambuyo podziwika, anzawo amakhala limodzi kwa masiku anayi ndipo amakwatirana nthawi zonse. Kugonana sikumatha mphindi zisanu. Pambuyo pathupi, nthawi yobereka imayamba, yomwe imatha kuyambira masiku 68 mpaka 81. Pali ana amphaka 1-6 m'ngalande. Amuna amatha kupha ana obadwa kumene, chifukwa amaletsa kuyamwa.
Ndi amayi omwe amalera ana awo ndikuyika nthawi yambiri ndi mphamvu pantchitoyi. Akabadwa, makanda amakhala mthunzi pafupifupi mwezi wathunthu (dzenje losiyidwa, phanga kapena dzenje mumtengo amatha kusankhidwa ngati phanga). Patatha mwezi umodzi, kuwonjezera pa mkaka wa m'mawere, ana amphaka amayamba kudya nyama.
