Yeah, it's always been the lynx, officially. But indeed it's not a well known fact, nor is it used anywhere really.

You can google "romanian national animal", all you'll find is the lynx, everywhere. However, i'm unable to find the origin of it.

I think i remember being told about it in sciences class in primary school decades ago... but yeah, it's not like it's used in any way anywhere.
