    I saw a Lynx at the Denham airport in western Australia in 2014.

    This is just a generic stock photo of one, I didn’t take a photo.

    Obv there are no native lynx in the area, and the climate is not suited to them at all., nor any evidence that one has ever existed there.

    Two other people saw it and pointed it out to me. I distinctly remember the features, tufted ears, long legs, stubby tail. About the size of a Labrador dog. Not just a regular feral cat. Distance was about 80m away, across the airstrip.

    We watched it for about 10 seconds, then it locked eyes with us and quickly disappeared into the bush.
