Iberian Lynx painting

Just off the easel
'The Observation Deck'
acrylic 60 x 44cm

The Iberian Lynx is considered to be the most endangered wild cat on the planet and lives in a small habitat in Andalucia Spain. Drastically reduced rabbit numbers which are the main food source of these beautiful cats, road fatality, habitat loss, illegal trapping and shooting have all contributed to a grave situation. Captive breeding programs remain the only hope of averting what seems like certain extinction.
