Summary
This report synthesizes information relative to conservation, management and research (ongoing and proposed) of lynx, lynx habitat and prey species, to be integrated into the Cascadia Partner Forum’s Science Plan contribution to the Great Northern LCC and to inform updates to the Working for Wildlife business plan. Canada lynx is a focal species of the Working for Wildlife Initiative and a Target species of the GNLCC science plan. A specific conservation goal within the GNLCC science plan is for “large intact blocks” of habitat within the Cascadia Ecotype.
