Watch the Wolves’ Reaction to the Lynx’s Presence! 

It seems to work. The wolfs did not look superconfident.

In the description they say that it was two different male cats that frequent the area leaving their markings. The wolves seem very timid and worried . . . reminds me of the lyrics of Pink Floyd's "Sheep": Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air. You better watch out, There may be (cats) about I've looked over Jordan, and I have seen No, things are not what they seem.

LoL 😭

"Manners maketh the man."

Must be a foreigner.

Other wolf: Finders keepers! Yummy cat turds... 😋

I just wish I hadn't decided to watch this while having lunch.

@@rjjcms1 lol!

Interesting observation! The behavior you noticed could indeed be a sign of their instinctual caution and teamwork. Thanks for sharing your thoughts, John!

@@naustecostation no I should thank you for sharing the video

I really do see it differently John and Vadim/Ira. Of course, it is teamwork, but that is wolf behaviour. In my opinion, everything points to especially very careful behaviour. I have never seen wolves who, if the situation is not clear, both immediately start exploring together shoulder to shoulder. Their noses already told them from a distance that several lynx had been here. She (in front) stands ready to leap away. The male behind the pipe checks everything in terms of scent and sound as he watches the wolf in the foreground. In the night shot, it is the rear wolf (end of the pipe) that examines the pipe thoroughly first, and then he walks to the front. The high-pitched peeping is typical of a bitch that is a bit stressed. You can see in the night shot how the male walks, and the position of his tail, he is clearly not insecure/fearful, after which the female relaxes and walks away If I were a wolf, I would also look up at such a strong scent. Those lynxes sometimes like to sit in a tree :) Everything you show us, Vadim and Ira, I find extremely interesting, and every time we see something new it makes/needs us to think.... and possibly revise our opinions. I love it! This research should definitely be supported: www.buymeacoffee.com/zoologyby?fbclid=IwAR3XfoRjV01hYuZoQpN-w9442RgScBcVTaBElJaPRlBfYPz5lVt2DygTwzg@@naustecostation

those aren't wolves theyre coyotes

@@alexanderkennedy2969 coyotes are not present in Belarus

Thank you! Yes we are in Belarus. The average weight of the wolves in our forests is 40 kg, the biggest was 62kg.

"oh thats cool i wonder how much American wolves weigh" 30-80 kg WHAT THE FUCk@@naustecostation

And perhaps they carry some dog genetics? If so, it would explain the way they carry their tails.

​@@joannleichliter4308What do you mean? That is the default way wolves carry their tails.

@@1faithchick7 Yes, wolves and coyotes in North America normally carry tails straight down, with no upward curve at the end. It's almost diagnostic. So I just wondered.

Yes, much similar

it's great to see others appreciate the natural order of things too!

A weird buddy decided to mark over every place his brothers pit bull peed. He and the dog became so angry with each other my friend locked himself in the bathroom with a gun while the offended dog screamed and yelled outside the bathroom door.

@@petehoover6616 Wonderful story. Should have been filmed and shared on RU-vid.

The pipe has been here since Soviet times. Now it serves as a notable landmark in the landscape that lynxes use for marking.

But it anyways looks like a giant fluffy furr ball. Just like house cats but a little bigger.

@@vocaljazz5046 - Pound for pound, 95% of dogs don't stand a chance against even a domestic cat, let alone a wild or feral cat! I wouldn't want to be that dog, LOL!

All cats have a routine where they have the same circuit and mark the same places for territory and to find a mate. Haven't you watched any Snow Leopard videos? It's how they know where to set a camera. This is normal behavior for any cat and most wildlife cameras on YT have cats and many other animals marking and checking the same spots.

@@myradioon They also mark kills hence my question. Cammers also set up on kills.

Thank you! It is a regular marking spot captured in before-mating season

@@naustecostation Thanks for the response!

Belarus

Oh, yes. The only signs missing are the scratch markings.

just not a good mic in the camera, but there is some wolf whinnering at 2:21

Sure, there are two different males they react to a scent of each other

scent*

Well she certainly did a heck of a job “refreshing” her scent at the scene.

😂😂😂

would be nice, yes

It’s an eurasian lynx, way bigger than a bobcat.

@@alfonsoiranzo3686 thank you 👍🏻🇺🇸

There is no problem with lynx in Sweden or Finland. There over 5000 of them in these two countries. It is a shy animal.

They are wolves and Eurasian lynxes, coyotes and bobcats are not present here.

This is Belarus. There are no coyotes in Europe in the wild, but the wolves are smaller.

These are not coyotes. I see coyotes EVERY day, where I live. These wolves look similar to the North American Red Wolf. Red Wolves are smaller than the Gray Wolf.

@@territepper2779 They are european wolves. The video was shot in Europe.

Also note that not all European wolves are the same size. These are just on the smaller side.

Those are wolves. The average weight of the wolves in our forests is 40 kg, with the largest weighing 62 kg. Please note that the video was captured with a wide-angle camera, which can cause significant distortion in terms of proportion and size.

Thank you!

We wish wolverines were still present here.

Most likely a lynx.

Given the type of lynx and the type of wolves in this video, I'd say a 1on1 fight with them would be a larger version of how a 1on1 fight with a Canadian lynx and a coyote would go, and we've all seen that video. A wolf may as well just be a larger coyote. Only reason why I'd say a wolf would do better than a coyote against a same sized lynx is because the wolf can still lay down a harder bite. But for the most part both wolf or coyote loses to similar sized lynx.... A wolf needs to be much bigger than a lynx to actually defeat it, and the kind in this video are jokes. Get a huge American grey wolf.

@@derekwilliams6188 What video? What's the title?

@BlueGorillaInTheMist just type into youtube Canadian lynx vs coyote

@@derekwilliams6188 I did, several different videos came up. It sounded like you were referring to a particular one.

These wolves weigh an average of 40kg, with the largest reaching 62kg. Coyotes on average weigh between 15 to 20kg, with the largest being 35kg

@@jancyvargheese5351the wolves can be bigger here and up in Canada. Those guys don't look 40 kilos, I'll just have to take your word for it. Plus we have these coywolves down from Nova Scotia which are about half and half. They haven't quite ranged to Virginia where I live yet. Not going to be great for pets when they do, but they are pretty critters. I wonder if they howl. Eastern US coyotes don't. Wester sing some amazing songs, though it can be pretty creepy if you're out camping alone in the desert.

Why?

Wolves and Eurasian lynxes. It's in Europe (Belarus)

@@naustecostation Thanks... Both did look off to be North American

That's an Eurasian lynx! 😁 It's in Belarus, bobcats are not present here.

No. There are no coyotes outside North America. And not all wolves are the same size, just like cats aren't.

There are no bobcats in Europe. In the video there are two different males of eurasian lynx.

Nope not coyotes

Coyotes only exist in North America, this is in Belarus. There are larger wolves than these in Europe too, but these are definitely wolves.

@@Ganiscol oh, gotcha, they're definitely small wolves in that case

the average weight of the wolves in our forests is 40 kg, the biggest was 62kg

@@naustecostation got it, I didn't know

Belarus

Look like wolves to me.
