How can we expand its population. The federal endangered species act was passed for species like the lynx. It needs to be federally recognized as a priority species. We need federal support to start recovering lynx. The first step along that road is listing.
Lynx is a species.
It is rare. It's range has been diminished. We urge you to list the lynx as threatened and then give us the funds needed to discover what is limiting the species in Maine. There is great fear on the part of industry that this listing will be used to shut down the forest to harvesting. However, Maine Audubon vigorously opposes this view.
