An endangered

animal

IBERIAN LYNX

 My favourite endangered animal is the iberian

lynx.

The lynx lives in the mediterranean forest

of the Iberian Peninsula,most of them in Andalucia

 They have a mottled fur , pointy ears ,

and the hair around their faces grow
during their live .Males are biger than the
female , and their fur is darker .

 Lynx is bigger than cats, has longer legs

and his fur is mottled. .

The 90% their diet are rabbits, but they

eat little mammial and bird too.
The iberian lynx is solitary, territorial and
they have nocturnal habits.

 The principal motive

because the Iberian lynx
are endangered is to
hunt massive during XX
century. In this moment
they are also in danger
from: lack of food, the
traffic accident, and the
diseases.

 In the XX century the

men hunt iberian
lynx because their
fur, and the lynx
compete with the
man to hunt rabbit.
In the actuality too
lynx die by tramps
and snares in
unprotected areas

 Another cause is the rabbits escased in

their habitad. Too the small number of lynx
causes then to be most susceptible to
diseases, especially leukemia.

 A lot of lynx die

trampled when
crossing roads.

Every people must to fight to protect the

Iberian Lynx, because there are less than
500 Iberian lynxs.
