Lynx is the biggest european cat`s beast of prey. In the Czech republic he lives only rarely / in Sumava, in Beskydy. He climbs very well and set phrase " He has eyes like lynx" is true, because lynx has very good sight. ZOO Brno is home for male Risa and female Macina. Macina is new inhabitant in ZOO Brno. Risa and Macina love each other, so we can look forward to the young one`s early.
