Iberian lynx: back from the brink of extinction … and run down by cars
(photo source) 06-19-15
The world’s most endangered feline species, the Iberian lynx, is making a comeback in Spain after being pushed to the brink of extinction.
But the costly efforts to reintroduce the spotted cat into the wild face an unexpected enemy – cars.
The number of lynx killed by collisions with vehicles has soared since Spain’s economic crisis began in 2008.
Final two Iberian Lynx released into the wild
Luso and Litio are the last of a group of ten to be released into the park and the event will be marked by a ceremony this afternoon attended by several government officials.
