BETWEEN THE DENSE SCRUB AND THE OAK AND CORK FORESTS, WHERE SILENCE REVEALS THE DISCREET PRESENCE OF THE MASTERS OF CAMOUFLAGE, WE SEEK THE FLEETING ENCOUNTER WITH THE IBERIAN LYNX. THE PRESERVED MEDITERRANEAN HABITATS ARE AMONG THE FEW PLACES IN THE WORLD WHERE THIS ENIGMATIC FELINE CAN BE PHOTOGRAPHED IN THE WILD.

Photographing the Iberian lynx is an experience of patience, respect and fascination. Between the montados and the remote valleys, where the wild rabbit still sustains this iconic predator, the photographic outings are carefully planned, with the support of specialized guides and in-depth knowledge of the species' behavior. Ethical observation and photography methods are used, always respecting safe distances and minimizing any disturbance. These expeditions are ideal for photographers and wildlife lovers looking for authentic, challenging and emotionally striking images of one of the most emblematic animals of the Iberian Peninsula.

Mammals: Iberian lynx, red fox, wild boar, red deer, fallow deer, European rabbit, European badger, beech marten, common genet, least weasel, Eurasian otter.
