KAMLOOPS — A lynx that was taken in for treatment at the BC Wildlife Park late last month has been released.

Conservation officers brought the lynx to the Fawcett Family Wildlife Health Centre after it was seen walking through the North Shore. The cat appeared to be acting abnormally.

The Wildlife Park found the lynx had fluid in its abdomen and later discovered a four-centimetre-long twig lodged in its upper eye socket.
