High faecal counts in juvenile lynx samples may reflect transient deficient immunity to hookworms and/or the effects of a larger exposure to infection.
Also, there were no significant seasonal differences in abundance when only adult lynx were considered.
It was an elk, a coyote, a lynx and a human.
However, a comparison of genotypes of hookworms from lynxes and cats would help to confirm this hypothesis.
The helminthfauna of the lynx has received little attention.
The lynx population of the study area consisted of three resident lynx couples, their offspring (three cubs as mean) and occasional wandering individuals.
Faecal samples were identified as belonging to: (i) juvenile (# 9 months) or adult lynx (. 9 months); and (ii) dry or wet seasons (table 1).
Positive effects on game species of top predators by controlling smaller predator populations: an example with lynx, mongooses, and rabbits.
