STOP SPAMMING the wildlife groups!!!
People leave groups because of the likes of you!!!
One spammer just like yourself might even "kill" a group, that happened with the
spanish lynx group.
This is a info group of the worlds most endangered cat, one perv can stop a lot
of good things being done here.

If you find it a bit hard to write the letters yourselves there are
some prewritten letters at the sos-lynx site.
http://www.soslynx.org/
They can be a bit hard to find and since it is a flash site i cant
give you a link directly to the letters.
go to the site, press "home" and at the left bottom corner you
have "model lobby letters".

Both snail mail and email would be super if you could.
It would also be good if you personalized them just a bit.
There are three prewritten letters, all important, but the one about
the Donana recovery plan is the most urgent of all.
There is no recovery plan after 2006!!!!

The current advice from Dan Ward's LynxBrief advises as follows:

"It is important that those interested in lynx conservation write
lobby letters to politicians and policy-makers to encourage them to
alter their actions in favour of the Iberian Lynx.  LynxBrief advises
all those interested and working in lynx conservation to write a
letter to the President of Andalucia calling upon him to urgently
implement an emergency lynx recovery plan in Doñana. Such a plan is
needed given the very small size, isolation and lack of recovery of
the Doñana population, and the on-going threats from fast motor
traffic and the loss of habitat to intensive farming and other
developments. In addition, a number of conservation groups – including
WWF Spain and Ecologistas en Acción – have already
recommended that such a plan be implemented.
Individuals and organisations should write to:

Excmo. Sr Presidente de la Junta de Andalucía,
Dr Manuel Chaves, Palacio de San Telmo,
Avenida de Roma, 41071 Sevilla, SPAIN
email: manuel.chaves@..."

Please if you can spare just 5 minutes of you time write to or email D
Chavez or any politicians to try and lobby them to make a difference.

This is the latest news from Dan Wards excellent LynxBriefs
Posted on:
http://www.iberianature.com/material/iberianlynxnews.htm#lynxbreeding 
This is the best site for up to date news on the Iberian Lynx.
Please take note of number 6, some advice on what you can do to help.

"Some conclusions from the August 2006 LynxBrief by Dan Ward . Download complete report 

1. There are now 21 lynxes in the captive breeding programme, spread across two centres – in El Acebuche near Doñana and Zoo Jerez. This includes 5 captively bred lynx and 16 incorporated wild-born founder individuals. A new, larger breeding centre is now nearing completion in Jaén province, close to the wild population in the Sierra de Andújar. It is
planned that the captive population will be increased to over 60 by 2010

2 Despite a number of recent reports of new lynx presence, including in Montes de Toledo (Castilla-La Mancha), in a area just west of Madrid, and Sevilla (Andalucia), breeding populations of Iberian Lynx can still only be confirmed in two places: Doñana and Andújar-Cardeña (both in Andalucia).
Figures released in early 2006 from the Andalucian Regional Government – produced by camera trap and footprint surveys – are for 141-169 lynx (adults and cubs > 6 months old) across these two areas in 2005

3 There has been a slight recovery in Andújar – Cardeña in recent years in both the size and the range of the population, in part due to conservation work by several organisations. Although the population
remains small and vulnerable, e.g. to forest fires or a crash in local rabbit populations, the situation has improved slightly.

4. The Doñana population has not recovered over recent years and remains small with just 20-35 adult lynx (Junta de Andalucia 2006). Moreover, the reproductive rate of lynxes in Doñana dropped in 2005, with only six females giving birth, and each raising on average just 1 cub. In addition, almost all breeding females in Doñana are located outside the protected area, where mortality rates are higher (see below) and habitat continues to be consumed by intensive agriculture. It has been concluded that both these worrying changes have been driven primarily by a further decline in the abundance of rabbits (the main lynx prey), particularly inside the National Park where rabbit densities dropped by 73% between 2000 and 2004 alone.

5 The level of non-natural mortality of Iberian Lynx is itself cause for concern, given the small size of remnant populations. Moreover, as with most species, recorded lynx mortality probably only represents a part of actual mortality, which may be significantly higher, given the practical difficulties of finding dead lynx in extensive, mostly private hunting, areas. In particular, it has been assumed that there is a high level of mortality amongst juvenile dispersing lynx in Andújar- Cardeña, which is not currently being recorded. New developments with smaller lynx radio collars may permit this particular knowledge gap to be addressed in the near future. One of the most striking findings of the record of lynx mortality for the last 18 months is that road-kills continue to be a significant – and perhaps the most significant – cause of lynx deaths, as shown in the graph below. This is particularly the case for the Doñana lynx population, where 6 lynx have been killed by vehicles in the last 18 months alone. This continues a trend occurring over recent years. For example, 18 lynxes have been runover between 2000 and 2006 around Doñana.

6 LynxBrief advises all those interested and working in lynx conservation to write a letter to the President of Andalucia calling upon him to urgently implement an emergency lynx recovery plan in Doñana. Such a plan is needed given the very small size, isolation and lack of recovery of the Doñana population, and the on-going threats from fast motor traffic and the loss of habitat to intensive farming and other developments. Individuals and organisations should write to:

Hi
I am sorry to anybody who has been or is still a member of this group.
  Unfortunately I have not been able to keep it updated as I was away
for about 5 months.  I am back home now and will try and find out the
current situation.  Please try and keep this site active, Id
appreciate any ideas, new topics (lynx and non lynx related) anything. :)
Apologies once more, lets see if we can make a little difference,
again.  Sounds like great news, back in April about the cubs, any news
recently about their condition?
Thanks
Robin
