The Balkan Lynx is a cherished national symbol of North Macedonia, even appearing on the back of a coin. As a child, I once saw this majestic creature while hiking with my grandfather. Its piercing eyes and sleek, powerful body left a lasting impression. Even after 30 years, I can still vividly remember that moment-an encounter with the wild beauty of the lynx that remains etched in my memory, symbolizing the deep connection between nature and our heritage.
Afghanistan has many other magnificent animals such as two dog breeds like Afghan hund and afghan kuchi dog, thanks for sharing this beauty of Afghanistan 🇦🇫🌹
Fun fact horses first evolved in North America, but left and or went extinct there 11,400 years ago until the Spanish brought them back in the 15th and 16th centuries 😊
A few points. You missed the genus Lycalopex the south american foxes. Despite being called foxes these are actually true dogs part of Canini. Also this is debatable but the Eastern Wolf is considered a separate species from gray wolves called Canis lycaon.
