Our Canada Lynx is a low poly papercraft wall mount of the boreal forest’s most elusive cat, captured face to face: tufted ears raised, ruff framing the face, golden eyes locked on yours. A tribute to an animal few Canadians will ever see in the wild.

+/- 4 hours of build time. Finished size: 33x29x21 cm . Pre-cut and pre-scored on heavyweight cardstock. No scissors, no printing, no experience needed.

The finished sculpture holds the wall with quiet intensity. Soft greys, warm beige, sharp facets and that unmistakable gaze make it a striking piece for a living room, an office or a cabin.

Part of the Poly Paper Craft Canadian wildlife collection. Designed in Montreal since 2016.

Every kit includes:

  • Pre-cut and pre-scored papercraft sheets on heavyweight cardstock
  • A practice kit: a tiny mushroom, to learn the fold technique before you start (a little bit tricky on purpose)
  • Step-by-step instructions in 6 languages (FR/EN/ES/PT/IT/DE)
  • Glue not included

No scissors needed. No printing. Everything is ready to fold.

Meet your animal · Shadow of the snowy forest

The ghost of the boreal forest.

The Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) lives across almost all of Canada, yet very few people ever see one. Secretive and mostly active at dusk and at night, it moves through dense boreal forest without a sound.

Its story is tied to one animal: the snowshoe hare. In winter, hares make up more than three quarters of its diet. When hare numbers rise and crash, roughly every ten years, lynx numbers follow. Fur records kept by the Hudson’s Bay Company in the 1800s first revealed this rhythm. Today it is one of the best-known predator and prey cycles in ecology.

Its body is built for deep snow. Broad paws thick with fur spread out like snowshoes. Long hind legs give it a forward-sloping stance. Black ear tufts, a full facial ruff and a tail tip that is entirely black set it apart from its cousin, the bobcat.

This kit shows the lynx face to face, ears up and gaze steady, the way you would hope to meet one on a winter trail.
