The Elusive Iberian Lynx | Wild Stories | BBC Earth

Bigbos animal

I would love to have one of these for a pet

dont know about you guys but she's 100% my type

Iberian Lynx are very unique & they deserve to be protected 🐱🐆🤎

I observe linx occasionally here in Southern Spain, a real treat.

Me and my brother were working in Brittany France and watched one eating a rabbit for 20 seconds before it noticed us then ran off

These lynxes are so beautiful. 😍

I saw a Lynx about the size and shape of a miniature Schnauzer In the Ariege in 2002. I mentioned it a couple of years later to a Toulouse University naturalist who was very skeptical till he asked just where I'd seen it. Whereupon he stated that there had been another report in the same place of a very small lynx; also thought to be Iberian. I was setting up a mountainbike event. A rider saw another Lynx but that was the size of a large dog fox

It's Meowscarada from Pokemon Scarlet/Violet!

We humans have a weird tendency to see what we want to see. It's some sort of a romanticised view of the world we're in. Through years of experience and understanding of animals I've moved past that. It is no longer a "romanticised" view but a respect that I have for other animals, even the smallest of insects.

Well done! Thank you for helping this beautiful species out from extinction.

she really said spain and margarita in the same sentence lmfaooo

Long live the Iberian Lynx

Beautiful.

Probably the inspiration for Sprigatito.

Meet your Gen 9 Pokemon grass starter, based on this lynx!

Here's some great news. The Iberian lynx recently reached the thousand individual milestone!! From 2002 to 2020, the population has went from 92 to a staggering 1,111. Let's hope they multiply even more this decade!!

PD: In 2021, the population grew by 23% and reached 1365 individuals!

Ya hay mas de 1000 linces ibericos!!!

i want to see the cat, not some girl who saw the cat

Very very interesting video Mam

Please share more stories like this. It's awesome hearing how she just had a moment to appreciate the beauty of nature with such a rare animal
Wish I had the time to explore nature like that

Thank you to everyone who works with nature and helps educate humanity 🙏💯

One of the lynxes born in Portugal and then released in Spain travelled 500 km to return to its birth place. 😻

Its twin brother must have been confused and went to the Pyrinnes…

At around the 5 minute mark she talks about feeling the lynx watching her from behind. She was not its equal, she was going to be prey. Lol

Spain is an uncredible beautiful country. So much more than tourist's places.

all of this "pretendscience" is nothing more than the a rich bitches life documentary.
she literally states... "I wanted to show X". " i am the producer" meaning "I funded the setup" I had the money, I went and tried to get pictures of cats.
I spent more money tracking the animals.
I got a few shows of the wild cats

arnt I amazing, im a scientist, my family gave me silver spoons , and i chose to go take pictures of wild animals.
I didnt actually help the animals.
i didnt actually perserve the land.
i just convinced the BBC to print television documentaries about my lifes story.

its not about the cat
its about the money bitch.

heritage privledge.
culture.

some familes faught for 200 years.
some families didnt.

so her goal was to show that 99 percent of earth has been wrecked by humans but , if you goto the grassy areas you can still find animals.
of corse she worded it quite differently by saying "you can still find animals in the grass"
then she contradicted her entire goals and point by saying , it only exist in a hand full of places in 2 areas.
less than 100
maybe 600

Imagine trusting the weather report 😂

Fake vocal fry voice.

Very irritating.

This was the whole spanish society working towards a goal. From scientists working on captivity reproduction and restoring their habitat, to the administration building elevated passes trhough roads, to normal people driving slowly on their vehicles and paying their taxes proudly to conquer one of the most difficult tasks my country has ever done. It was decades of full commitement and its not even done yet.

Please do not be so egotistical and patting yourself on the back, and show the video. Thanks

So you think you're an animal? I don't think you are, and I'm not either. You and I were made in the image and likeness of God himself. And God is not an animal.

He looks like a wise old samurai

Nice work!!! So beautiful to see how Iberian Lynx population is rising up yo more than 1000 these days.
Thanks to everyone involved in this conservation project!

The bold and curious behaviour of these amazing cats, gives us some hint as to how feline-human relationships might have started.

These people had never heard about Mediterranean climate? And they work in Nature?

Such a beautiful animal, no wonder the Egyptians worshipped them...

Sooo beautiful id love to pet one and have one lol ♥️♥️♥️♥️
