Lynx - The Secretive Snow Cat
Detail below..
Lynx will cover large sources of food, concealing their "windfalls" from other carnivores and cache smaller prey when hunting is good. Aside from running down prey, lynx - true to their feline nature - are excellent tree climbers, often lying in wait on tree branches or logs overhanging game trails, pouncing on unsuspecting prey from above.
