Abstract

The author discusses the ongoing conservation efforts for the Iberian lynx, which was declared critically endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) in 2002. It mentions the study conducted by Palomares and colleagues in 2011 which criticized conservation efforts for lacking continuity and being applied over a very small area. Information on the European Union's LIFE project for the conservation of Iberian lynx in Andalusia (ILLP) in Spain is presented.
