Ferreras 2001 Iberian lynx habitat fragmentation |
Map of the study area, showing classes of habitats grouped according to their use by dispersing lynx, and location of lynx subpopulations. Grey areas represents Mediterranean shrubland, hatched areas pine and eucalyptus forests, and white areas correspond to open habitats (mainly croplands and marshes). Black spots indicate human populations. Dashed line represents the limits of the Doņana National Park. Thick line polygons indicate locations of lynx subpopulations, constituting the metapopulation of Doņana.
