The Iberian lynx (Lynx
pardinus), found only in Spain and Portugal, has been declared Critically
Endangered in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species: "With the
population having declined to less than half of the 1,200 of the early 1990s,
the Iberian lynx is close to becoming the first wild cat species to go extinct
for at least 2,000 years." |

The original system of
evaluating species status, in use up to 1994, classified species as Extinct,
Endangered, Vulnerable, Rare, Indeterminate or Insufficiently Known. These
category definitions were largely subjective; for example, the definition of
Endangered in1993 was: "Taxa in danger of extinction and whose survival is
unlikely if the causal factors continue operating". By the 1980s it was
becoming evident that a more objective and quantitative method of comparing
species at risk was needed. (including Tables on IUCN Red List categories
applied to the Felidae for the 2002 Red List, Classification of felid species
on the 2002 IUCN Red List, Changes in felid species Red List classification) inclusive: The Red List Explained. |
