Summary:
A woman was attacked by her boyfriend’s “pet” lynx. The lynx reportedly escaped from its cage and bit the woman while she was cleaning. Animal control took the animal and it is now in quarantine and they are looking into the incident as it is illegal to house a wild cat in most situations.
