The Eurasian lynx has a typical lifespan ranging from 19 years and 6 months to 32 years and 6 months, with a maximum recorded lifespan of 26 years, although its theoretical lifespan is from 11 years and 10 months to 23 years and 9 months. The species reaches sexual maturity between 1 year and 1 month and 3 years of age. A lynx kitten’s eyes open between 1 and 2 weeks of age, and the young begin to walk between 2 weeks and 4 weeks, from 2 weeks and 4 days to 4 weeks. The “Embryo” stage involves development within the mother, followed by the “Kitten” stage where the newborn is blind and helpless, relying on the mother for milk and warmth. After weaning, the species enters the "Juvenile after transformation" stage, lasting from 6 months to 2 years, during which the young learn to hunt with their mother. The “Adult” stage begins when the Eurasian lynx hunts independently and can reproduce, and lasts from 2 to 20 years.
