Stakeholder perspectives on the prospect of lynx Lynx lynx reintroduction in Scotland
People and Nature, 2023 Conservation translocations are complex and challenging, but are frequently employed to tackle biodiversity decline. Large predator translocations can be particularly emotive and contentious, in part because they present actual or perceived risks to the ...

Ecology and Evolution, 2022 When wild‐caught Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) from the Slovak Carpathian Mountains were reintroduced to Central Switzerland in the early 1970s and spread through the north‐western Swiss Alps (NWA), they faced a largely unfamiliar landscape with strongly ...

Identification of Non-Tuberculous Mycobacteria in Iberian Lynx (Lynx pardinus) and Their Impact on Its Health [PDF]
Veterinary SciencesThe Iberian lynx (Lynx pardinus) population has been increasing in recent years thanks to the collaboration of several associations within the framework of the Life Lynxconnect project, which promotes captive breeding for the subsequent release of ...

Temperature driven density gradients of two congeneric felids reveal contrasting responses to climate change at a range margin [PDF]
Scientific ReportsClimate change causes divergent range shifts in cold versus warm-tolerant species, potentially reshuffling biotic interactions at range margins. Yet, outside of coarse distributional metrics, little information exists regarding the ecology of species ...

Spatial segregation and habitat partitioning of bobcat and Canada lynx
FACETS, 2020 Harvest records suggest that the abundance of bobcats (Lynx rufus) has increased and the leading edge of their distribution has spread northward, while the trailing edge of the Canada lynx (Lynx canadensis) range has contracted in Ontario, Canada.

Purging of deleterious burden in the endangered Iberian lynx
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2022 Significance The dynamics of deleterious variation under contrasting demographic scenarios remain poorly understood in spite of their relevance in evolutionary and conservation terms. Here we apply a genomic approach to study differences in the burden of

Ecological Monographs, 2023 The dynamic interactions between predators and their prey have two fundamental processes; numerical and functional responses. Numerical response is defined as predator growth rate as a function of prey density or both prey and predator densities [dP/dt =

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023 The Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) represents an endangered species with only small populations remaining in Central Europe. Knowledge about the threat posed by potential infectious agents to these animals is crucial for informing ongoing protection measures.
