Bovine Tuberculosis and the Endangered Iberian Lynx by Victor Briones, Lucía de Juan, Celia Sánchez, Ana-Isabel Vela, Margarita Galka, Natalia Montero, Joaquín Goyache, Alicia Aranaz, Ana Mateos, Lucas Domínguez

“…We report the first case of bovine tuberculosis in a free-living Iberian lynx (Lynx pardina), an extremely endangered feline, from Doñana National Park in Spain. The isolate (Mycobacterium bovis) correlates by molecular characterization with other isolates from wild ungulates in the park, strongly suggesting an epidemiologic link.…”

Is restocking a useful tool for increasing rabbit densities? by Francisco Carro, Mónica Ortega, Ramón C. Soriguer

“…In this study we evaluate the impact restocking has had on the population dynamics of native rabbits in the Doñana National Park. As part of the natural processes monitoring program carried out in the Doñana Biological Station (ESPN-EBD-CSIC), rabbit censuses were conducted in spring and late summer in 2005–2015 at dusk and at night along six fixed transects in habitats harbouring rabbit populations.In order to take into account restocked rabbit numbers, annual reports from the Doñana Natural Area and data provided by the Lynx team of the LIFE project were incorporated into the study. …”

Complementary Differences in Primary Production and Phenology among Vegetation Types Increase Ecosystem Resilience to Climate Change and Grazing Pressure in an Iconic Mediterranean... by Juan Miguel Giralt-Rueda, Luis Santamaria

“…In this work we combine a 15 year series of remote sensing data on plant production (NDVI) with meteorological (daily precipitation data) and ungulate abundance (annual counts of four species of wild and domestic ungulates: red deer, fallow deer, cattle, and horses) in an iconic protected area (the Doñana National Park, SW Spain) to (i) estimate the impact of intra- and inter-annual variation in rainfall and herbivore pressure on primary production, for each of four main vegetation types; and (ii) evaluate the potential impact of different policy (i.e., herbivore management) strategies under expected climate change scenarios. …”
