: Myself and friends were traveling down a logging road near Oxbow, Maine in search of partridge and scouting for deer signs when we came across two Canada lynx in the road ahead. I've had some brief lynx sightings in the past, but nothing quite like this. They were being immensely vocal with each other. We were unsure if they were flirting or fighting. They were preoccupied with each other and did not seem to care that we were close by. The lighter cat was especially unique. In the end, both cats decided to go their separate ways. We did spot the darker cat a couple of hours later not far from the site of the initial confrontation. Maybe he/she was the winner?
