The Iberian Lynx is a critically endangered wild cat native to the Iberian Peninsula, primarily found in Spain and Portugal. It is known for its distinctive tufted ears, short tail, and spotted coat. This species primarily preys on European rabbits, which are essential for its survival. Habitat loss, hunting, and a decline in rabbit populations have significantly threatened the Iberian Lynx. Conservation efforts, including habitat restoration and breeding programs, aim to increase its numbers. The Iberian Lynx is a symbol of wildlife conservation in Europe, highlighting the importance of protecting endangered species and their habitats.
