Robinson, I.H.; Delibes, M.
The distribution of faeces by the Spanish lynx (Felis pardina)
1988  Journal of Zoology (London) (216): 577-582

The distribution of faeces of the Spanish lynx was observed in the Biological Reserve of Do¤ana during October 1985. Faeces were non-randomly distributed on tracks through the vegetation, and occurred more frequently than expected beside intersections of deer trails with the tracks. A computer simulation showed that a randomly moving lynx was more likely to encounter faeces when thy occurred at intersection points than when they occurred randomly on tracks.
