Lynx

Korkeasaari Zoo, also known as Helsinki Zoo, is the largest zoo in Finland, located in Helsinki. The Finnish Forest Lynx Exhibit was built as part of an area that is dedicated to native Finnish forest species. The aim for the design of the Lynx Exhibit was to build a naturalistic exhibit for this species. The Lynx Exhibit includes the main exhibit area and a covered off-exhibit area with two dens. It is facing the sea and provides the animals with an excellent view. Climbing structures enable them to stay high above the visitors and to observe the area around their exhibit. The animals neighboring the Lynx are Finnish forest reindeer, marten, common kestrel and wolverine.
