Disease potential of feline leukemia virus (FeLV) collected from Iberian lynxes (Lynx pardinus): low pathogenicity in experimentally infected specified pathogen-free domestic cats [PDF]
, 2010 The Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus) is considered the most endangered felid species in the world, less than 250 animals left. The narrow genetic basis may contribute to render this species particularly susceptible to infectious diseases.
