The Iberian lynx : extinction or recovery ?

This publication describes the very urgent situation regarding the Iberian Lynx. Its position on IUCN's red list as critically endangered indicates that the chances of extinction are quite real. Extinction of the lynx would mean the fist extinction of a big cat in Europe since the disappearance of the Sabre-toothed tiger approximately 10.000 years ago. Many of the dangers the lynxes are confronted with have a close relation to human activities (infrastructural developments, traffic and expanding agriculture).
