Scientific illustration of lynxes in the snow. Two big cats with tufts on their ears growling at each other over what might be a recent kill. Or a log. It's hard to tell. The cats, though, are very vivid.

Two cats at dusk, growling in the snow.

The nights have been long, but they’re growing shorter.

May you survive your own lonely wilderness and find warmth and companionship where you can.

This Yuletide illustration is from The Wild Beasts of the World by T.C. and E.C. Jack, a three-volume set preserved in the Biodiversity Heritage Library.
