Invitation to the media - The three lynx kittens make their official entry into their Biodôme habitat

MONTREAL, Aug. 13, 2013 /CNW Telbec/ - The Montréal Space for Life invites media representatives to watch as the lynx kittens and their mother make their official entry into the Laurentian Maple Forest habitat at the Biodôme. You will witness their first foray into their new environment.

Two females and one male were born on June 4, 2013. This birth is very important, as it is fairly rare for animals in captivity—particularly the Canadian lynx—to reproduce.

As of Thursday, visitors will also get to see the kittens discover their new play area in the company of their mother. They are already having lots of fun together. They will love playing hide-and-seek, learning to climb the trees and jumping on the rocks. Their mother will always be close by to bring them comfort when they need it.

Be the first to see the family up close.
