Lynx Cub Licking.

Iberian lynx are one of the world’s most endangered cats because of habitat loss, decreasing food sources, car collisions, and illegal hunting. But thanks to conservation efforts, the species is recovering and can be found in small areas of Portugal and Spain. Antonio Liebana Navarro took this image while leading a conservation project based around photography in Peñalajo, Castilla-La Mancha, Spain. Focusing on this cub, he was lucky enough to capture the moment it lifted its head from a waterhole, licked its lips, and gazed straight into the camera. #
