Strawberry Farming could affect Iberian Lynx

2011-05-27T14:40:00.001-07:00

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-13546715
Please think twice before eating strawberries. Imported Spanish strawberries could be creating a huge water shortage in the Donana National Park. How come you may think. In order to meet the demands for strawberries Spain has had to double the amount of bore holes to harvest the water for the year round crops,water that flows deep underground and flows to the Donana Park. The last of two places in Spain and Portugal that the almost extinct Iberian Lynx live.please click link for further details.

About The Wild Cat Club

2010-06-21T06:33:00.000-07:00

Welcome to The Wild Cat Club. We are a group of breeders interested in Wild looking cats. Anything from your domestic moggie to wild cats. It is hoped to build upon this and with our enthusiasm for all cats hope that we get a good following of like minded contributors.Everyone is welcome to comment and if you wish to join please forward through your details via the Join The Club link.
The objective of the Club is to bring awareness of the European Lynx which is on the brink of extinction and will be the first feline of the larger wild cats to become extinct since the Sabre Tooth Tiger... how we can help in it's survival!!

http://www.iberianature.com/spainblog/category/andalucia/

If we cannot safe one specy of redlisted Cat we cannot save the Planet . All are necessary to our own survival as a specy by helping to retain their environment we retain our own.

Cat breeders already associated to TICA are especially invited as we have already put the name forward and it has been noted by them.

It would be nice if breeder and exhibitors already showing at TICA joined.
The proposed long term plan is to promote different breeds of wild looking pedigree cats online and in the showring..

We are hoping that catlovers and breeders can help.
Further Pictures,Suggestions and Information appreciated.

We are just hoping that breeders of domestic cats will care enough for their Wild cousins to think of ways of keeping the Now almost extinct Iberian Lynx viable.
It would be a travesty for eco awareness and do nothing to try and stop things escalating when we do become aware.

A breeding and reintroducing into the wild campaign has been in place for the last decade in Cota Donana Reserve Spain and Portugal.

http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2010/05/iberian-lynx/oxford-photography

Although we are named The Wild Cat Club.(Application has been made to TICA for recognition).
This site welcomes breeders that are breeding Wild Looking Cats or Just own Wild Looking cats, but are breeding Pedigree Domestic breeds of cats to join our breeders list.
Perhaps if you do well in a show you would like to show the winners on here.
You do not need to be breeder or exhibitor to become a member or a volunteer.
We hope to promote good breeding practises and friendship amongst breeders Whilst raising awareness of the plight of the Iberian Lynx of which anyone can join and help.
Any monies from this site will be purely for charity.
This does not include breeder/members with Kittens/Cats offered as available.
All welcome to join.
