what is the animal of the week?
The spanish Lynx is a critically endangered species. The spanish Lynx is the world's most threatened species of cat, and the most threatened carnivore in Europe.
Studies conducted in March 2005 have estimated the number of surviving spanish Lynx to be as few as 100, which is down from about 400 in 2000. If the Iberian Lynx were to become extinct, it would be the first big cat to do so since the extinction of the Sabre-toothed tiger and European lion.
