How odd, never seen a keeper go in with Lynx before.

I'm sure they'd just keep their distance like wolves and Ocelots do. Can't imagine them doing *that* much damage anyway.

I remember there was only a very partly visible enclosure next to this with a bengal tiger(s) on show. I got the feeling it was temporary as the main bengal enclosures were being refurbished.

Also, there's a bridge linking this to the tiger enclosure Dalek is on about, so I'm sure this held tigers at some point.

Now that is a superb enclosure, nice touch to have the handyman and lynx co-habiting!
