- Title
Feline leukemia virus and the Iberian lynx.
- Authors
López, G.
- Abstract
A response by Guillermo López to a commentary on his study on the feline leukemia virus and the Iberian lynx in Doñana, Spain is presented. Feline leukemia virus (FeLV) was first identified in two dead Iberian lynxes in early 2007. Majority of commentators agree that FeLV infection is a major concern in endangered species conservation. The author agrees with the commentators' claim that long-term monitoring program is relevant to develop conservation measures. He adds that monitoring in the Iberian lynx population was intensified after the outbreak in 2007.
