Preserving a Maximum of its Genetic Biodiversity One of the priority species for
being so seriously threatened. We
have preserved THOUSANDS OF ALIVE SAMPLES from HUNDREDS
OF INDIVIDUALS (many of them already
dead) from the world's most
endangered felid, THE IBERIAN LYNX In order to dispose of the maximum biodiversity,
the samples come from: . All
the In-Situ (in
its habitat) Iberian lynx populations
. All
the captive breeding centers, including
Portugal . Animals reintroduced into the wild In addition, we have
provided biological material to
conduct relevant research, always leading to favor the conservation of such a
species in its habitat. These investigations have
been conducted in different institutions,
including: . Universidad Miguel Hernández de Elche . Museo Nacional de
Ciencias Naturales . Estación Biológica
de Doñana . Universidad de
Córdoba . Universidad
Complutense de Madrid, etc |
