| Status of the Caracal in Protected Areas in South-western Turkey | |
| 2006 Cat News (45): 23-24 | |
Although the caracal _Caracal caracal_ is probably endangered in Turkey, knowledge of its status and distribution runs from none to a wide range of assumptions. The species has been considered 'quite uncommon' since the 19th century, while only a few animals have been detected or captured in 3-4 locations all over the country during the 20th century (Kumerloeve 1986, Serez 1990, Massetti 2000, Ozkurt et al. 2003). |
