A bobcat track was spotted near a box trap set for Canada lynx.  It's unknown if competition with bobcats plays a role in Canada lynx population in Minnesota.  Once trapped for their fur, lynx were believed extirpated until just a few years ago.  Now, as many as 400 wander Northeast Minnesota. (MPR Photo/Bob Kelleher)
