A black-coated Canada lynx was photographed for the first time by Thomas Jung, a researcher at the University of Alberta, Canada. Phys.org reports the animal was found in a rural residential area near the town of Whitehorse, Yukon. Several Canada lynx experts have examined the footage and confirmed that the animal is indeed a lynx, marking the first recorded case of melanism in Lynx canadensisi. Seeing a lynx in the wild is rare to start, seeing a black one is almost unfathomable. Glad this dude pulled out his cellphone to film or I don’t think anyone would have believed him.
