For fourth year in a row, this March have begun the births in the Program of Ex--situ Conservation (PCE) of this Iberian feline, which is believed to remain less than than 200 specimens in the planet. Today, without counting the new births of the year yet, 37 lynxes (16 males and 21 females) integrate this particular community, that is wanted to guarantee the genetic survival of the species.
