I have a lg Alaskan Lynx to do for a customer confronting a pine martin. The Lynx measures 2 3/4 X 40 x 20 I can't seem to find a form big enough. Does anyone know where I may find a form this large?
Thanky you in advance

Van Dyke's page 151 should work
I`m fix`n to mount this same manikin up for competition next month...it is a great manikin...nicely detailed and accurate..I believe it comes with a 23 inch circumfrence so you`ll be trimming it down a bit but should work for ya just fine...I ordered Van Dykes eyes 28mm and in my opinion they don`t look realistic at all...I ordered custom eyes from Tohickion..Talk to Paul if you call Tohickon and tell him what ya want...he`ll hook ya up..
Since you didn`t specify if this was a carcass measurment or hide,I can get 40 inches easily out of a lynx that came off a 32 inch carcass.The largest Lynx carcass I`ve ever measured personally was 34 inches.I`ve heard of 40 inch carcasses just never seen one yet,out of hundreds.Good luck with your project!

This European/Siberian Lynx was raised in captivity...measurements on the carcass were 3 x 40 x 26...freak`n huge cat...rough picture---waiting on eyes to arrive...:)
