Nicole Lewis was driving on May 18 near Avery Lake, which borders Ontario, Canada, and the US state of Michigan, when she came across two lynx having what seemed to be some sort of territorial dispute.
Lynxes are rarely spotted in Michigan but they are very common in the Dinorwic Region of Ontario, close to where Lewis spotted these two.
Although it remains unclear exactly what the two lynxes were doing, as they are normally solitary animals, the interaction most likely had to do with claiming territory.

This isn't nearly as scary in the daylight. First time I heard two bobcats on a moonless night it scared me to death.
They sound like humans pretending to be cats.
Lol, so true!

I would honestly think some human was playing a joke on me if I heard this in the forest.

U hear that in the forest u b thinkin some lady is being raped or somethin. I've heard it hundreds of times in the 30+ years Ive been living where I'm at. Scary shit to hear at first. Then ya realize their more afraid of u than u r of them lol
@@6footmidget214 I way misunderstood that comment. At first, I thought you meant you heard women being raped 100s of times which was alarming.
@@Nick-xu7ns oh wow lol. I would've had to go help the lady if that were the case. Idk what would be more alarming to u. The fact that u thought I heard it that many times or the fact that I didn't go try to help her. I can only imagine what went through ur mind when ya first read and thought that. 😂🤣. Good day Nick 👍
They keep saying breh.
It’s incredibly fascinating yet disturbing how human they sound
Your photo really fascinates me 🤮
Their cries get mistaken a lot for woman being murdered in the woods or crying for help, cops get calls about them a lot. They are also unfortunately mistaken for "Wendigos" and "Skin Walkers"....
You should hear cougars
Those sound totally different from this.
@@ultimatemixmeister5127 Not really. I wasn't saying they did anyways.
They needed to have this talk. It was important for the both of them to get their feeling sorted out. Say what they needed to say out-loud.

I'm 100% with the left one. His argument is based on actual scientific journal and not just some pseudo science bs.
Lukas TA But isn't the one on the right entitled to it's own opinions?
Yeah but the one on the right has the second amendment on his side.
Lukas TA one on the right clearly is winning and left side one's arguments are just dumb
Both arguments are dumb and pointless but leave it to the right to use force to get his point across.
I don't think you can be done. The one on the right'll just keep going on with it's option.
I'd be scared shitless if I went camping and heard that in woods. It legitimately sounds like some type of female demon shrieking.

Deeper sound than I expected. I had a puma scream behind me in dense brush about 30 feet away. They sound like a woman screaming her last breath. Ran into something in the dark once that sounded like a baby chainsaw. Never figured out what it was. I wasn't trying to find out. It was in a little bush by my car and I went full throttle if you got within 10 feet of it. I left it alone. Really draw a blank as to what it even could've been.

Kind of funny tho how it’s almost civilized for the animal kingdom “let’s make goat sounds not war” 😂😂😂
@@_september_4799 Actually, this is very typical for animals that are lethal in all ends. :) It is a lot of hissing and posturing but very little action. Makes sense from an evolutionary angle I guess. If you get into a real fight with that your chances of offspring will go down dramatically.
I’m the 400th one who liked your comment!
It said that if you go into the woods in North America and hear the sound of a baby cry, you shouldn't go trying to find it. A lot of people have been killed by cougars or injured by Lynx because of that.

When you observe two stressed out women having a conversation via screaming to see who is more stressed.
Especially since you usually go camping to get away from women.
Gotta admire their conviction. In their heads they probably think their noises sound as tough as lions roaring

It may well be about territory as stated in the description, but lynx fights are the most common during the mating season. They can hear each other's mating calls from far away and the males clash over the females.
"Why you been acting all messed up towards me?" "Why YOU been acting all messed up towards ME??"

Right! Lmao good god. I would think it was a witch
RaWWr!
Id be thinking demons
I have while hunting. Those territory mofos make the sound of nails on metal.
its from this sounds that people a long time ago believed that there were witches in the woods
Expectations:Roar of a cat Reality:A woman giving birth
Oh please...tiger is the only cat that growl like how they does it in the movies. With a Canadian lynx, I half expected a hissing sound, definitely NOT a terrifying screaming sound that cougars make or the distance low-pitched roar of a lion. But THIS...this was just pure silliness

The cool thing is they did not kill each other and limit the amount of genetic diversity of the specie. A dead male cannot procreate and is useless to nature. So they argue and shout at one another until they determine a winner for the disputed territory.

Nah, it's not angry old ladies, it's two angry-drunk sorority girls.

The reason the guy is saying this is rare is because of how rare that particular species of Lynx is. The chances of two individuals meeting like this is stupid to begin with, let alone it being on a road that had someone with a camera on it at the time.
You know how funny this was? There are lots of bobcats and lynx where I live but never saw a confrontation like this.
An utterly amazing thing to witness. I would like a wildlife biologist or zoologist to explain this behavior! What was the gender of each lynx? Thank you for posting this.

Seattle was "taken over by anarchists"...oh look at that still standing. You people advocate for murder of those standing up for their rights, and spread hate as much as possible.
