What does a group exactly mean here? --Backinstadiums (talk) 19:10, 29 March 2020 (UTC)
- The group of the lynxes. "Lynx eat meat", "Lynx are running"; but: "I see two lynxes". --Manfariel (talk) 12:06, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
- That's not a rule though. You find plenty of attestations for "two lynx". 90.186.170.193 10:36, 22 December 2020 (UTC)

[edit]Persian: the second term, in its own article, is shown meaning "caracal", not "lynx". https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%D8%B3%DB%8C%D8%A7%D9%87%E2%80%8C%DA%AF%D9%88%D8%B4#Persian --Manfariel (talk) 12:03, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
