A Canada lynx that invaded a henhouse looking for an easy and quick meal got a earful instead from the farm owner.
And Chris Paulson also recorded himself holding up the animal by the scruff of its neck and telling off the seemingly growling and scowling cat with its black, tufted ear tips, massive paws, and thick grey fur about the damage the feline left behind.
The video went viral. Paulson says he heard a commotion coming from his chicken coop on Sunday and went to check it out when he saw the lynx had killed two chickens and was going for more.
However, Sergant Ron LeBlanc of the BC Conservation Officer Service, says Paulson should not have picked up the cat or interacted with it because while the Canadian lynx is not known to attack humans, it has very sharp teeth and claws, and formidable survival skills.
