  2. General Information The Iberian Lynx is Critically Endangered and is one of the most endangered cats in the world. These Fierce cats are found in all around Europe. They are carnivals and they eat small mammals such as mice, squirrels, and birds. In 1980, their were lots of Iberian Lynxes found in the south of Spain. Then, in 2003, they were decreased a lot, I wonder how many Iberian Lynxes could exist by now? 1980 in Spain 2003 in Spain

They have a very strong roar as well!

  4. HOW IT HAS BECOME ENDANGERED AND WHY The Iberian Lynx Have been endangered for decades. They have been endangered because of their beautiful fur! They have been doing this because their fur are so isolated because of the cold. Also, they have been struggling because they live in the mountains of Spain, far from the cold northern forests where most Iberian lynx live.
