that jump at the end was a bit unexpected!
Lynx used the normal cat method of climbing on something: assume it’s easy to do and catch yourself when you slip

They take smaller prey. I won’t let my cat outdoors here in Iowa for several reasons, lynx are one.

I was surprised that there wasn’t any “embarrassment grooming” after the slip.

Amazing to see this wild creature up close. Like a cat in many ways, but then you realize it is deeply feral. Also, the moment when it slips is especially interesting when you wonder if it has ever had to deal with a metal surface before.
Something apocalyptic (unveiling) about it all…
