Palomares et al 2002 Faecal genetic analysis for Iberian lynx presence

Location of Andalusia within the Iberian Peninsula. The location of faeces diagnosed as positive (black) and negatives (open) during systematic (circles) and nonsystematic (squares) surveys. Star indicates the location of the Doñana National Park. Shaded areas are the patches identified by Rodríguez & Delibes (1992) as probable lynx areas. Lines indicate provincial limits.
