This Man Woke Up To A Strange Noise, Then He Saw This On His Porch (16 Pics)

ADVERTISEMENT

Earlier this month, we wrote about the most awesome “I woke up to this” moments that have ever happened, and this story that happened to Tim Newton from Alaska definitely belongs there.

“Tim was awakened by noises on [his] deck last week – and looked outside. In astonishment, he grabbed his camera.. and can you believe it? Mama Lynx and her SEVEN kits!!” – he later wrote on his facebook page.

“She called to them and they all lined up right outside in front of where he was standing (he was inside the screen door!) Amazing ALASKA WILD LIFE!!! They proceeded to run and play on our deck, and then in our yard!”

“I’ve concluded that lynx must spend 1 percent of their waking lives chasing rabbits, and 99 percent chasing their kids. It was pretty much non-stop frolicking and rough-housing.”

To get a shot on one Lynx is pure luck, but a whole family is awesome, plus they even stayed to play in the garden too makes it even better.

. . . fantastic delight . . . "Feed 'em" was my first thought, they all look so gaunt that I'm surprised they had any energy to play, especially Mom who has given her all to get that crowd this far . . . "Mom-of-the-year award goes to this spunky lady . . .

Oh, so cute, I love lynxes! The species, native to my country-Bulgaria is extremely rare and I'd probably never be able to photograph a wild one. Honestly, I can't even imagine how great it must feel to capture such rare and beautiful animals on photo!

To all those saying that the animals are starving: the very fact that there are seven young means that they are not starving. If the mother couldn't produce enough milk the strong ones would survive and the runts would die off. That's how nature works. The fact that they are all alive means they all have enough to eat and are doing just fine.

wow, an usually large litter. My guess is they look gaunt because mom is overburdened but if they are all playful then they are likely healthy enough to be chasing rabbits soon.

The mother could be malnourished in trying to feed 7 kittens. The normal litter usually numbers no more than 4. It all depends of the kittens had already been weaned. From their size, they probably had.

Cute. I really hope this person wasn't feeding them. Wild animals should stay wild. When they lose their fear of humans and get hungry, bored or whatever - don't be surprised when they eat your dog. Close encounters with humans, usually encouraged by the human, most often leads to the animal being put down. I speak as a steward of Colorado Outdoors, and hope folks can understand that there are always consequences, even if unintended, to feeding the wildlife.

I wonder what drew the cats to a porch which must have a large amount of humans scent? Perhaps the momma lynx associates humans with food? Perhaps humans fed her in the past? Maybe they smelled food cooking in the kitchen?

This is adorable, a lynx mama and her 7 babies, this can probably only happen in Canada, here in Germany some lynxes came back from Eastern Europe or from France too many many years after the last lynxยดd been shot for the fur, but theyยดre super-shy and unfortunatelyยดre still poached, especially the Russians pay a lot of money for a lynx fur, in the Bavarian Forest 2 lynxesยดve been killed within less than a year a year or two ago, one of them was pregnant and the other one had a baby thatยดs never been found anymore, that probably starved, and two more lynxes from thereยดre missing, they had radio collars thatยดve been found cut off the lynxesยด necks, so probably those two lynxesยดve also been killed, sometimes they find the one or the other missing lynx at a Russian fur traderยดs shop, find it out by making a DNA test.... I hope this lynx furamily hereยดs safe!!! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’–

Aweome scene to witness, however it means that human development has gotten even more tragicially close to the animals' wild habitat is is encroaching on their shrinking territory. They therefore have to search further and further out to find food due to habitat depletion. Climate change is also a major factor.

Amazing photos. โค๏ธ To all of you who want to feed wildlife, no these are not starving. And if they were, there are other ways to help than rushing to your fridge (call professionals who work with wildlife). The average adult lynx weighs from 18 to 30 pounds (8.2โ€“13.6 kg). Male lynx are generally larger than females and occasionally weigh 40 pounds (18.2 kg) or more. The lynx mama in this picture looks like she is between 18-30 pounds.

To all those saying that the animals are starving: the very fact that there are seven young means that they are not starving. If the mother couldn't produce enough milk the strong ones would survive and the runts would die off. That's how nature works. The fact that they are all alive means they all have enough to eat and are doing just fine.

The mother could be malnourished in trying to feed 7 kittens. The normal litter usually numbers no more than 4. It all depends of the kittens had already been weaned. From their size, they probably had.

Cute. I really hope this person wasn't feeding them. Wild animals should stay wild. When they lose their fear of humans and get hungry, bored or whatever - don't be surprised when they eat your dog. Close encounters with humans, usually encouraged by the human, most often leads to the animal being put down. I speak as a steward of Colorado Outdoors, and hope folks can understand that there are always consequences, even if unintended, to feeding the wildlife.

I wonder what drew the cats to a porch which must have a large amount of humans scent? Perhaps the momma lynx associates humans with food? Perhaps humans fed her in the past? Maybe they smelled food cooking in the kitchen?

This is adorable, a lynx mama and her 7 babies, this can probably only happen in Canada, here in Germany some lynxes came back from Eastern Europe or from France too many many years after the last lynxยดd been shot for the fur, but theyยดre super-shy and unfortunatelyยดre still poached, especially the Russians pay a lot of money for a lynx fur, in the Bavarian Forest 2 lynxesยดve been killed within less than a year a year or two ago, one of them was pregnant and the other one had a baby thatยดs never been found anymore, that probably starved, and two more lynxes from thereยดre missing, they had radio collars thatยดve been found cut off the lynxesยด necks, so probably those two lynxesยดve also been killed, sometimes they find the one or the other missing lynx at a Russian fur traderยดs shop, find it out by making a DNA test.... I hope this lynx furamily hereยดs safe!!! ๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’–๐Ÿ’–

Aweome scene to witness, however it means that human development has gotten even more tragicially close to the animals' wild habitat is is encroaching on their shrinking territory. They therefore have to search further and further out to find food due to habitat depletion. Climate change is also a major factor.

Amazing photos. โค๏ธ To all of you who want to feed wildlife, no these are not starving. And if they were, there are other ways to help than rushing to your fridge (call professionals who work with wildlife). The average adult lynx weighs from 18 to 30 pounds (8.2โ€“13.6 kg). Male lynx are generally larger than females and occasionally weigh 40 pounds (18.2 kg) or more. The lynx mama in this picture looks like she is between 18-30 pounds.
