Turkish Angora

 

The Life of Animals | Turkish Angora | Turkish Angora Cats have a silky tail, medium-length coat long, without undercoat and a balanced body type. Well known for its bright white coat, Turkish Angora Cat can have one of more than twenty colors including black, "blue", and red feathers. Turkish Angora cats are active, intelligent, and involved. Turkish Angora energetic, and often find the "high ground" in the house, including over doors, shelves and other furniture. Appearance and angora Persian connected. Persian cat is developed by mutation fantasies Turkish Angora cat British and American. While some think that pedigree cats Persian cats Association are natural, in the 19th century Persian Angora itself.


Of course, the big show we are given special classification angora, and in response to numerous requests from fans animals have never been able to obtain information to understand the difference between the Persian Gulf and the Angora cat. A genetic study of breeds of purebred cats (using DNA from purebred cats in the United States and Europe) random race population shows Van in Turkey as a distinct population of Turkish Angora, despite their association geography. Correction. As above, it has been argued that the Angora Turkish Van is a different population. This is the result of a flawed methodology Turkish Angora Turkish Van American are not genetically related significantly to the Turkish Angora and Turkish Ankara Zoo.


Instead phylogenetic tree shows that the Turkish Angora breed is related to the random population and polished Egyptian Mau cat Tunisia Turkey random race cats. Tunisia and the Egyptian Mau cat has a western influence: Bayesian analysis shows that cats Italy and Tunisia is a mixture of European and chat in the western Mediterranean. Factorial correspondence analysis of cat breeds and populations). . Inconsistency: Turkey chat random populations breed in common with cats of Israel, but not with the descent Turkish Angora (phylogenetic tree). Many Turkish Angora cat breeds are presented as the Ankara Zoo, and must go back to first cats imported from Ankara zoo. Ankara Zoo selectively bred cat white cat Turkish intellectual Street


W gene responsible for the white coat and blue eye is closely related to the hearing ability in this area and in other breeds, and the presence of a blue eye can indicate the cat is deaf in one blue eye, with some really boring if it contains two blue eyes. However, many odd blue eyes and white cats have normal hearing, and even deaf cats lead a normal life if kept indoors. Turkish Angora cats living some hereditary ataxia, a rare disease believed to be inherited as an autosomal recessive trait.

Maine Coon

 

The Life of Animals | Maine Coon | Maine Coon is one of the largest breeds of domestic cat. Males weigh 15-25 pounds (6.8 to 11 kg) and females weighing 10-15 kg (4.5 to 6.8 kg). In 2010, Guinness World Records one male Maine Coon named "Stewie" as the "Longest Cat" measuring 48.5 (123 cm) from tip of nose to tip of tail. The Maine Coon is a longhaired, or medium-haired, cat. The coat is soft and silky, although texture may vary according to coat color. The shorter length. Maine Coon, due to their size, have large claws. There have been cases of Maine Coon cats with their claws to cling to walls Maine Coon, all colors that other cats. All colors of the eyes are acceptable breed standard, except that the appearance of blue eyes or odd (i.e., the eyes of two different colors) in cats have different colors from white coating. Maine Coons have several physical adaptations for survival in harsh winter weather.


Paws large, and especially the extra-large paws polydactyl Maine Coons, facilitate walking on snow and are often compared to snowshoes. Tufts of long hair growing between your toes, toes still hot and assistance to help walk in the snow from paws additional structure without significant extra weight. Strong hairy ears with extra long tufts of hair growing from inside help, your ears warm. While some sources claim that trait is thought to have occurred in approximately 40% of the population in Maine Maine Coon in a moment, little evidence was given to support this claim. Polydactyly is rarely or never seen in Maine Coons in the ring, since it is unacceptable for standard competition.


Private organizations and breeders were created in order to disappear hoping polydactyly in Maine Coons. Maine Coons are known as the "gentle giant" and possess above-average intelligence, making them relatively easy to train. The Maine Coon is generally not known as a "lap cat" but their gentle disposition makes the breed of dogs, cats and children relaxed. Maine Coons are howling, talking, singing," talking "known (especially" talking back "to their owners), and make other loud sounds. Data insurance pet Sweden, the average life of the Maine Coon is> 12.5 years. Maine Coons are generally a healthy and robust breed are adapted to survive the climate of New England. In Maine Coon, is probably autosomal dominant. For older cats, like men, are probably predisposed to the disease in middle age.


A specific mutation that caused HCM in Maine Coon for which testing services are seen. Of all the Maine Coons tested for the mutation in the Veterinary Cardiac Genetics Laboratory in MyBPC College of Veterinary Medicine at Washington State University, tested positive about a third. Not all cats that tested positive for the clinical symptoms of the disease and some Maine Coon cats with clinical signs of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy who test negative for the mutation, strongly suggesting that a second mutation exists in the breed. Another potential problem for health, spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), another inherited disease that causes loss of neurons in the spinal cord that activate the skeletal muscles of the trunk and limbs. Cats more commonly suffer from hip dysplasia tend to be larger than males, big-boned breeds such as Persians and Maine Coon be.  The Maine Coon is the only cat breed listed in the database. Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a slowly progressive disease, which is how many Maine Coon, thinking that only the Persian and Persian related breeds blight.

Snowshoe



The Life of Animals | Snowshoe | The size of the ears varies from medium to large with slightly rounded tips. The short-haired coat is solid and white patterns. Points (ears, tail, mask and sometimes legs) are solid black-based colors. Balls can be white, show color, skin color or speckled. Its color darkens with age to the point, from a chocolate brown color. Snowshoe cats come in blue, lilac, lynx, deer, chocolate and seal points. The bat is a medium to large sized cat and along many cats, males reach 18 pounds or more. The records and associations cat coat color is recognized racquets point coloration.


With a darker color and light bodily ears, face, legs and tail The American Cat Fanciers Association and the American Association of Cat fans recognize seal point coloration and blue point coloration while the Fédération Internationale Féline recognizes seal, blue, black, chocolate, red, cream, cinnamon and fawn point coloration. It also detects the color of the FIF tortoiseshell tabby, tortie and tabby coat pattern.


The International Cat Association recognizes all pointed colors. Puppies are born white snowshoeing, and spots appear in 1-3 weeks. Each snowshoe has a unique pattern for each cat. Snowshoes are very social and docile, and show great devotion and love for their owners. Snowshoes also enjoy water, especially water, and can swim.

Liger

 

The Life of Animals | Liger | Liger is the largest cat in the known world. Imprinted genes may be a factor that contributes to the great Liger. Other large hybrid cats can reach a similar size; litigon, a rare hybrid of a male lion and a female tiglon, about the same size as the liger, a male name Cubanacan (Alipore Zoo in India), reaching 363 kg (800 lbs) extreme rarity of these second-generation hybrids may make it difficult to determine if they are more or less, on average, than the Liger.


Male ligers also have the same levels of testosterone, on average, an adult male lion, but azoospermia according to Haldane's rule. In addition, female ligers can achieve great size, weighing about 320 kilograms (705 pounds) and reached 3.05 m (10 ft) long, on average, and are often fertile. Shasta, ligress (female liger) was born Hogle Zoo in Salt Lake City, May 14, 1948 and died in 1972 at age 24. 1973 Guinness World Records said the 18-year-old, 798 kg (lb 1759) to male life liger zoo in Bloemfontein, South Africa, in 1888 (not exactly like the zoo was opened in 1920), (c 'is a request Liger was 756 kg. and the year was actually 1953).


Fertility of female big cat hybrids is well documented in a number of different hybrids. This is in agreement with Haldane's rule: in hybrids of animals, sex is determined by sex chromosomes, if there is no sex, rare or sterile, is the heterogametic sex (the one with two different sex chromosomes eg X and Y) . Ligers tigers have as an alternative model, which is very weak and the lion as a reddish-brown background. In addition, they may inherit rosettes from the lion parent (lion cubs rosette and some adults retain faint markings).


White tigers have been crossed with lions to produce "white" (actually pale golden) ligers. In theory white tigers could be overcome with white lions to produce white ligers very clear, and even stripeless. There are ligers blacks. Like a blue or Maltese Tiger is probably no longer exists, gray or blue ligers are extremely unlikely. Several AZA zoos are reported to have ligers

Ocelot

 

The Life of Animals | Ocelot | The range of ocelots 68-100 cm (27-39 inches) in length, more than 26-45 cm (10-18 cm) in length, tail and usually weight 8-18 kg (18-40 pounds), also much larger if the people have occasionally been recorded, making it the largest of its kind Leopardus often delicate wild cat. He has straight hair, straight hair, ears and front legs relatively large rounded. The model of the ocelot coat can vary, be anything from cream to reddish brown in color, or sometimes gray and marked with black rosettes. The Ocelot is mostly nocturnal and very territorial.


Males occupy territories from 3.5 to 46 square kilometers (1.4 to 18 square mi), while women occupy smaller, non-overlapping territories from 0.8 to 15 square kilometers (0.31 to 5.8 sq. I). Territories are characterized by spraying urine and feces left in prominent places, sometimes favoring private latrine sites. Ocelot hunting in a range of 18 km2 (6.9 sq mi), with mostly small animals, including mammals, turtles, lizards and frogs, crabs, birds and fish. Almost all hunting trapped ocelots is much smaller by itself, in rodents, rabbits and skunks that form the bulk of the diet.


Ocelot usually reproduce only once every two years, although the female can mate again after losing a litter. After mating, the female is a cave in a cave on a rocky bluff, a hollow tree, or bush (preferably thorny) thick. The small litter size and relative rarity of creation to the ocelot population particularly vulnerable to loss. Compared to other small cats, the ocelot kittens grow very slowly. Ocelot live up to 20 years in captivity The ocelot is widely distributed in South America, Central America and Mexico.


The countries in this range are Argentina, Belize, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Guatemala, Guyana, Honduras, Mexico, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Nicaragua, Suriname, United States and Venezuela. The cat is probably extinct in Uruguay. The Ocelot once inhabited dense chaparral of southern and eastern Gulf coast of Texas, and can be found in Arizona, Louisiana and Arkansas. On 7 November 2009, an ocelot was photographed in the mountains of Cochise County, Arizona. In February 2011, the Arizona Game and Fish Department has confirmed the sighting of another ocelot in the Huachuca Mountains of southern Arizona.


Ocelot only inhabit areas with relatively dense vegetation cover, although they may occasionally hunt in more open areas at night. Salvador Dalí frequently traveled with their pet ocelot Babou, also bringing on board the luxury liner, SS France. The Moche people of ancient Peru worshiped animals and often depicted the Ocelot in their art.

European Shorthair

 

The Life of Animals | European Shorthair | European Shorthair has partners in the UK (British Shorthair) and USA (American Shorthair) were derived, which is much longer. British Shorthair however was crossed with a Persian cat and the cat selectively bred with the muzzle slightly shorter and thicker cobbier coat. Since the breed was developed from the normal domestic cats that are very different temperament, the nature of domestic short hair is impossible to understand.


In terms of personality and the emergence of domestic short hair looks more like a standard internal European short hair cats. The European Shorthair is a muscular, medium and large cat with a broad, muscular chest. The relatively large head is rounded, with well-developed cheeks, but it is not round, as the British Shorthair head. European Shorthair dense coat is short, soft and shiny, and must lie down.


Pure white, is also permitted. Eye color and skin color can be yellow, green or orange. Blue or odd-eyed individuals are permitted if the fur is white.

Siberian Tiger

 
  
The Life of Animals | Siberian Tiger | The Siberian Tiger is rusty reddish or rusty yellow, with narrow black stripes. The body length is not less than 150 cm (59 inches), condylobasal skull length 250 mm (9.8 inches), zygomatic width 180 mm (7.1 inches) and length of upper carnassial tooth more than 26 mm (1.0 inches ) long. It is generally 5-10 cm (2.0 to 3.9 inches) larger than the Bengal tiger, which is about 107-110 cm (42-43 inches) high. According to modern research of wild Siberian tigers in the Sikhote-Alin, an adult male on average over 35 months old with a weight of 176.4 kg (389 lb), the average asymptotic limit 222.3 kilograms (490 pounds) is, an adult tigress weighs 117.9 kg (260 lb). The average weight of historical Siberian tigers is expected to be higher: 215.3 kg (475 pounds) for males and 137.5 kg tiger (303 pounds) for women in May 2011 with a weight of a male named "Banzai" 207 kg (460 lb ) was the radio-collar. This individual is heavier, but smaller than a male previously fitted with radio collars. Propose measures more than 50 people trapped, taken that the body size is similar to that of Bengal tigers.


The length of the tail in adult males is about 1 meter (39 inches). In some cases, the Siberian tigers in captivity reached a weight of up to (1.030 pounds) to 465 kg, as the Tiger "Jaipur" The spatial extent of the Amur tiger in Russia's Far East, stretching from south to north for about 1000 km (620 miles) along the entire length of the Primorsky Krai and Khabarovsk Krai in the south east and south of the river Amur. Key habitat for the Amur tiger is the deciduous forests of Korean pine with a complex composition and structure. The complex of ungulates is represented by red deer, wild boar, sika deer, roe deer, moose Manchuria, musk and Ghoral. The number of Amur tiger in China is estimated to be 18-22. About 90% of the population in the mountainous region of Sikhote Alin An unknown number of Tiger Reserve in the areas around Baekdu survive mountains, based on take-off and landing runways and local observations.


Siberian tigers are known to travel up to 1,000 km (620 miles), a distance which marks the boundary of the land exchange by continuous ecologically made In 1992 and 1993 the population density maximum total population of tigers in Sikhote-Alin 0.62 people in 100 km2 (39 sq km) was estimated. Between January 1992 and November 1994 11 tigers were captured, radio-collared and tracked for 15 months in the eastern slopes of the mountains of Sikhote-Alin. Distribution of wild boar was not so much to predict the distribution of the tiger. Although they attack both the Siberian roe deer and Sika, this overlap is small ungulates were with tigers. Distribution of the moose was wrong with the distribution of the tiger. The distribution of preferred habitat of the prey is a key indicator of the precise distribution of the tiger.


In 2004, dramatic changes in land tenure, density and reproduction in the central area of the Sikhote-Alin Zapovednik Siberian Tiger Project have demonstrated what can on that, if the Tigers well against the mortality of people protected during an extended period, the adult female densities increase dramatically.  Siberian tigers reach sexual maturity at age four. Unlike the Bengal tiger, the Siberian tiger is rarely a man-eater. Siberian tigers have been in the past rarely dangerous unless provoked, although in the lower Syr Darya, a tiger and woman collecting wood and killed an unarmed military officer during the period from June, while going through the thicket of reeds. The attacks against the shepherds were recorded in the lower reaches of the Ili.


In the year 1867 have killed the river Tsymukha, Tiger 21 people and injured six others. China's Jilin Province have attacked Tiger woodcutter and coachman, and sometimes enter cabins and pull on adults and children Killed, according to the Bureau of the Japanese police in Korea, a tiger a man, while leopards killed three wild boars and wolves, four 48 in 1928 were only six cases in Russia of the 20 attacks Century recorded unprovoked leading to man-eating behavior. Provoked attacks are frequent, but usually to capture the result of failed attempts In December 1997, intervened Amur tiger wounded, killed and eaten two people. Both attacks occurred in the Bikin valley. The anti-poaching task force investigating two deaths Inspection Tiger hunted and killed the tiger. In January 2002 a man was attacked by a Siberian tiger on a mountain road near Hunchun in Jilin Province, China, near the borders with Russia and North Korea. An examination of the scene of the attack showed that the deer was first made by man unaffected by the tiger. Soon the tiger has been shown to stroll slowly past them. Attacked about an hour after this meeting, the tiger and killed a 26-year-old woman on the same street. Until then, the tiger was found lying at 20 meters, low and barely alive. Despite the extensive surgery by a team of veterinarians, the tiger died of wound infections. The zoo subsequently erected a large fence topped by an electric fence.

Malayan Tiger

  
The Life of Animals | Malayan Tiger | There is no clear difference between Malaysia and the Indochinese tiger when samples of the two regions are compared cranial or coat. Malaysian Tigers appear to be smaller than the Indians. Length of the body taken from 16 women tigers in the state of Trengganu varied from 70 to 103 in (180-260 cm) and the average of 80.1 inches (203 cm). The geographical distribution between Malaysia and Indochina tigers is not clear how the tiger populations in northern Malaysia are contiguous with those in southern Thailand. The total potential habitat of 66 211 km2 tiger was (25564 km ²), which consisted of 37 674 km2 (14,546 square miles) of confirmed cases of tiger habitat, 11,655 km2 (4,500 square miles) of tiger habitat and expected 16,882 km2 (6518 km ²) tiger habitat as possible.


Malayan tigers prey on sambar deer, barking deer, wild boar, bearded pigs in Borneo and Serow. Tigers in Taman Negara also attack sun bears and elephants. Tigers occur at very low densities 1.1-1.98 tigers per 100 square miles in the woods as a result of the low density fixed to maintain viable populations of at least six tiger breeding females, the reservation must be more 1000 square miles. Information on food preferences, morphological measurements, demographic parameters, social structure, communication, range sizes, dispersability are missing.


When the tiger of Malaysia was accepted as a subspecies of the tiger family, the news was warmly received in Malaysia. However, there was brief discussion about the scientific name of the Tiger of Malaysia. The formal description of the subspecies called his name Panthera tigris jacksoni in honor of tiger expert Peter Jackson. In Malaysia, so the Tiger of Malaysia is known as Panthera tigris malayensis. The Tiger of Malaysia is the national animal of Malaysia. A tiger is represented in the arms of Malaysia, representing the government, and appears in heraldry various types of institutions such as Malaysia Royal Malaysian Police, Maybank, Proton and the Football Association of Malaysia. The tiger has been given several nicknames by Malaysians, including "Pak Belang", which literally means "Uncle Stripes." The Tiger Malaysia was made in the Special Service Group insignia.

Indochinese Tiger

  
The Life of Animals | Indochinese Tiger | Male Indochina tigers as 2.55 to 2.85 meters (8.37 to 9.35 m) long, weighing 150-195 kg (330-430 pounds) as measured between the skull 319-365 mm (13-14 inches) in length. Large individuals can weigh over 250 kg (550 pounds). Female Indochinese tigers as 2.30 to 2.55 m (7.55 to 8.37 feet) in length, weight 100-130 kg (221-287 pounds) with a length of 275-311 mm skull (11 12). The average female Indochinese tiger is approximately 2.44 m (8 ft) long and weighs about 115 kg (253 pounds). Indochinese tigers live in secluded forests in hilly to mountainous terrain, most of which lies along the borders between countries. Indochinese tigers prey primarily ungulates of medium and large enterprises. Sambar deer, wild boar, and cattle Serow large gaur and banteng and youth constitute the majority of the diet of the tiger in Indochina.


small prey itself is just enough to satisfy the energy needs of a large carnivore such as the tiger, and is enough to play Tiger. This factor, combined with poaching for Tiger Direct traditional Chinese medicine, is the main factor in the collapse of the Indochinese tiger throughout its range. According to government estimates of national populations of tiger, the subspecies population numbers around a total of 350 individuals All existing populations are at extreme risk reduction hunting of prey due to illegal hunting of wild pigs, deer and habitat fragmentation and inbreeding. Tiger numbers will be difficult to increase unless the residents can see a live tiger as more valuable than a dead man.

Bali Tiger

  
The Life of Animals | Bali Tiger | The Bali tiger was the youngest of the nine subspecies of tiger, and not comparable with the size of the leopard or panther. Bali tigers had short hair, the orange has been deep, dark and had a smaller number of lines compared to other sub-species of tiger. Bali tigers also had unusual rod-like structures on the head. Bali tiger had an average gestation period of 14-15 weeks. This split the tigers into two groups, which then develops is independent, the second option, the Tigers swam from one island to another to colonize. The road from Bali is located only 2.4 miles wide, making it good in the buoyancy of the Tiger Media. One of the most comprehensive document left by the Hungarian baron Oszkár Vojnic was the Balinese people trapped, hunted and took photos of a tiger. Surabayan gunsmith E. Munaut is confirmed to have killed more than 20 tigers of Bali in a few years. The last confirmed sighting of the tiger was a grown woman, killed 27th September 1937, at Sumbar Kima, in the western part of Bali.


The British Museum in London is the largest collection, with two cups and three skulls belong to the Senckenberg Museum in Frankfurt, Natural History Museum in Stuttgart, Naturalis in Leiden Museum and the Zoological Museum at Bogor, Indonesia, the remains of the last known Balinese keeps Tigers . Unlike deer hunting, they have learned very little, if any, Balinese Tiger Hunting embraced before the arrival of Europeans on the island because of tigers as evil, dangerous creatures have been seen. Nevertheless, Tigers had a well-defined position in the folk belief and magic. For example, when the Balinese the bottom of the tiger's whiskers, a powerful, undetectable poison for your enemy to mention be in the same book this, Miguel Covarrubias, the "Island of the Gods", 1937, when a child is born Balinese, got a protective amulet necklace of black coral and "tooth of a tiger or a piece of tiger bones.


As in other Asian countries, the people of Bali tiger parts like wearing jewelry than for the state or for spiritual reasons, such as power and protection. Necklaces of teeth and claws or rings male cabochoned polished ivory teeth of the tiger are still in daily use. Disappeared since Tiger is near Bali and Java were old or recycled parts of Leopard and Sun Bear body parts were used instead. One of the traditional Balinese dance, the Barong, even in one of four forms, a guy named Tiger Barong (Barong Macan).

Bengal Tiger

 
  
The Life of Animals | Bengal Tiger | The coat of the Bengal tiger is light orange yellow, striped with dark brown to black, the belly is white and the inner member, and the tail is orange rings with blacks. Male Bengal tigers have a total length, including the tail, from 270 to 310 centimeters (110 to 120), while the females range from 240 to 265 cm (94 to 104). The average weight of males is 221.2 kg (488 lb), while that of females was 139.7 kg (308 lb). The men captured in the Chitwan National Park in 1970 had an average weight of 235 kg (520 lb) 200 to 261 kg (440-580 lb), and the females was 140 kg (310 lb) from 116 to 164 kg (260-360 lb). The men of North India are as big as the Siberian tiger with a skull length 332-376 mm higher (13.1 inches to 14.8). The white tiger is a recessive mutant of the Bengal tiger, which was reported in the wild from time to time in Assam, Bengal, Bihar and especially the old state of Rewa. There is a case of a real tiger albino duly authenticated, and none of the Black Tigers, with the possible exception of a dead specimen examined in Chittagong in 1846. Bengal tigers are defined by three distinct mitochondrial nucleotide sites and 12 unique microsatellite alleles.


The recent history of tigers in the Indian subcontinent is compatible with the absence of fossils of tigers in India by the end of the Pleistocene and the absence of tigers in Sri Lanka, which was separated from the subcontinent in the early Holocene increase in the water. In the Indian subcontinent, tigers live in tropical evergreen rain forests, dry forests, tropical forests and subtropical moist broadleaf trees, mangrove forests, subtropical and temperate forests of mountain and flood plains. Tiger density of these blocks are high, in part a response to extraordinary biomass of ungulate prey. The basic social unit of the tiger is one of the elements of mother and offspring. Resident adults of both sexes tend to restrict their movements within a defined area of the habitat in which to satisfy their needs, and in the case of tigers, their young growing.


Included in its range of home were much smaller home ranges of two females, a tigress with her cubs and sub-adult Tigre. They occupied home ranges of 16-31 km2 (6.2 to 12 square miles). The house is occupied by resident adult males tend to be mutually exclusive, although one of these residents can tolerate a transient or sub-adult male, at least for some time. A male tiger preserves a vast territory to include the home ranges of several females within its limits, so it can keep the rights to mate with them. In general, there is some overlap with the resident female. Home ranges of males and females are not stable. Changes of less suitable habitat are made from animals that are already resident. New animals become only the residents as vacancies occur when a former resident moves or dies. There are more places for women than for male residents inhabitants. During seven years of camera data capture, monitoring and observation in Chitwan National Park, 6-9 breeding tigers, from 2 to 16 non-breeding tigers, and tigers from 6 to 20 youngsters under one year of age were detected in 'study area of 100 km2 (39 sq km). Residents of the 11 females, 7 were still alive at the end of the study period, two missing after losing their territories to rivals, and 2 deaths. A young tiger was believed dead after being photographed with serious injuries from a trap deer.

Iberian lynx

The Life of Animals | Iberian lynx | In most respects, the Iberian lynx resembles other species of lynx, with a short tail, Tufted ears and a ruff of fur Beneath the chin. While the Eurasian lynx bears rather pallid markings, the Iberian lynx has distinctive, leopard-like spots with a light coat That Is Often Various shades of gray or light brownish-yellow. The head and body length is 85 to 110 centimetres (33 to 43 in), with the short tail an additional 12 to 30 centimetres (4.7 to 12 in); the shoulder height is 60 to 70 centimetres (24 to 28 in). The male is larger than the female, with the average weight of 12.9 kilograms lazy (28 lb) and a maximum of 26.8 kilograms (59 lb), compared to an average of 9.4 kilograms (21 lb) for Females; this is about half the size of the Eurasian lynx.


Survival of the young depends on the availability of Heavily prey species. In the wild, both lazy and Females reach sexual maturity at one year old, though in practice They rarely breed until a territory Becomes vacant; one female was known not to breed until five years old when its mother died. A cub will frequently kill its littermate in a brutal fight. No matter the reason, conservationists must separate the kittens until the 60 day period is reached.


The Iberian lynx Prefers heterogeneous environments of open Grassland mixed with dense shrubs Such as strawberry tree, mastics, and juniper, and oak trees Such as holm oak and cork.
