(2009). Conservation status and Action Plan for the recovery of Iberian lynx populations in Portugal (Estado de conservación y Plan de Acción para las poblaciones de lince ibérico en Portugal). In Iberian Lynx Ex Situ Conservation: An Interdisciplinary Approach (Conservación Ex Situ del Lince Ibérico: Un Enfoque Multidisciplinar): 33-40. Vargas, A., Breitenmoser-Würsten, C., and Breitenmoser, U.(Eds.). Madrid: Fundación Biodiversidad in collaboration with: IUCN Cat Specialist Group. Keywords: 8PT/action plan/captive breeding/conservation strategy/habitat restoration/Iberian lynx/in situ conservation/Lynx pardinus/rabbit recovery/recovery/reintroduction Abstract: From the first half of the 20th century onwards, the Portuguese Iberian lynx population was distributed in three major nuclei: Sado Valley, Malcata and Contenda-Barrancos. In the following decades these areas were subjected to a process that culminated in the specie's considerable regression, probably as consequence of a major allocation of potential habitat to forestry and of prey scarcity as a result of viral diseases. The most recent survey, conducted from 2002 till 2004, revealed that the species is presently on the verge of extinction. Aware of the critical situation of the Iberian lynx in Portugal, the Institute of Nature Conservation and Biodiversity developed a Conservation Action Plan for the Iberian lynx in order to provide a consistent and effective approach to conserve the species in Portuguese territory. The on-going Action Plan is being applied in all Natura 2000 Sites, located in the lynx historical distribution that present suitable characteristics for the species potential presence or landscape features that can be optimised for lynx survival and that can be relevant for the species life-cycle. The goal of this Plan is to apply pre-release strategic reintroduction activities in order to make it possible, in the long-term, the reintroduction of Iberian lynx. Integrated in the plan, there are several ongoing conservation projects, which include habitat and prey restoration and the construction of a breeding centre that will be integrated within the overall Iberian Lynx Ex situ Conservation Programme.

A lo largo de las décadas siguientes, las poblaciones de lince sufrieron una regresión significativa en estas áreas, probablemente debido a las prácticas silvícolas en gran parte del hábitat disponible, así como a la es- casez de conejos a consecuencia de la introducción de enfermedades víricas. Según el último censo de linces realizado entre los años 2002 y 2004, el lince actualmente se encuentra al borde de la extinción en Portugal. El Instituto para Sabater la Conservación de la Naturaleza y Biodiversidad, consciente de la situación crítica de esta especie en Portugal, adoptó un Plan de Acción para la Conser- vación del Lince Ibérico con el fin de disponer de un método coherente y eficaz Antonio para la conservación del lince en territorio portugués. Este Plan de Acción se Photo: está aplicando en todos los espacios de la Red Natura 2000 situados en el área de distribución histórica del lince y que, a su vez, ofrecen condiciones apro- piadas para la presencia potencial de la especie. También se están teniendo en cuenta aquellos espacios con características que podrían ser optimizadas para la supervivencia del lince. El Plan tiene como objetivo realizar actividades estratégicas de preparación para la reintroducción, con el fin de posibilitar, a largo plazo, la reintroducción del lince ibérico en áreas de distribución históri- ca. El Plan integra varios proyectos de conservación que están actualmente en curso y que incluyen la regeneración del hábitat y la recuperación de las espe- cies de presa, así como la construcción de un centro de cría que se integraría en el programa global de conservación Ex situ del Lince Ibérico.

[email protected] 302/396 Received 2 September 2016; Accepted 3 March 2017 Abstract: For 25 years the rural development policy has been implemented through the LEADER Approach in the EU to reduce differences between rural and urban areas, as well as to satisfy the basic needs of the population. In this paper, Extremadura is analysed, which is a Spanish region where LEADER has been applied since its inception in 1991. The objective is to assess if the distribution of rural development aids has been influenced by the diverse demographic and socioeconomic realities that Extremadura presents from the analysis of variables that represent these realities on the territory through a GIS. Following this methodology, it has been noticed that the largest investments have been executed in the most developed rural areas of the region. Key words: Rural development, LEADER Approach, Local Action Group, Geographic Information System Resumen: Durante los últimos 25 años se viene implantando la Política de Desarrollo Rural europea bajo el conocido como Método LEADER, cuyo fin es reducir las diferencias existentes entre las zonas rurales y las urbanas de la UE, así como satisfacer las necesidades básicas de su población.

CARRANZA Cátedra de Biología y Etología. Fac. Veterinaria.Univ. Extremadura. 10071 Cáceres. ([email protected]) RESUMEN El presente estudio tiene como objetivo determinar el estatus poblacional del Lobo ibérico (Canis lupus signatus) en Extremadura. El ámbito de estudio se circunscribe al área de distribución, previa- mente descrita por varios autores. Se presentan los resultados correspondientes al trabajo de campo realizado en verano/otoño de 1997 y 1998 en la Sierra de San Pedro y en la Sierra de Gata. Se ha desarro- llado una metodología destinada a la localización de grupos reproductores y, de modo general, a la de- terminación de presencia/ausencia de la especie. Para ello se han realizado campañas de campo consis- tentes en itinerarios (recorridos a pie) en el área de estudio, cubriendo amplios sectores, en función de las zonas potencialmente más usadas por los lobos. Durante 1997, en la Sierra de San Pedro se realiza- ron 64 recorridos, que suponen 692 km, y en Gata, 32 recorridos, con 431 km. En 1998 se han realizado 23 recorridos (228 km) en San Pedro y 12 recorridos en Gata (116 Km). El trabajo de campo se ha llevado a cabo de manera conjunta, en los bordes fronterizos de España y Portugal, con investigadores de la Universidad de Lisboa. En las prospecciones efectuadas en las sierras de San Pedro y de Gata no se ha podido confirmar la presencia de grupos reproductores.

  • Rural Tourism As a Development Strategy in Low-Density Areas: Case Study in Northern Extremadura (Spain)
    sustainability Article Rural Tourism as a Development Strategy in Low-Density Areas: Case Study in Northern Extremadura (Spain) Ana Nieto Masot * and Nerea Ríos Rodríguez Department of Art and Territorial Sciences, University of Extremadura, 10003 Caceres, Spain; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The appearance of new trends and models of tourism consumption has allowed the proliferation of rural tourist facilities in northern Extremadura. This article analyzes the economic, social, and heritage (natural and cultural) variables to relate them to the tourism offer and demand in these areas. The present study used geostatistical techniques such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and their spatial location through Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to determine the distribution and degree of incidence of these variables in the territories. The results obtained confirm the existence of imbalances in the tourism sector, which made it possible to determine which tourist territories have implemented the best lines of action to receive visitors, increase economic income, and preserve the population in rural areas with deficiencies in their tourism development. Keywords: rural tourism; travelers; principal component analysis; geographic information systems; tourist accommodation; Extremadura 1. Introduction Tourism has been an economic sector of great importance and has undergone devel- opment, especially since the middle of the 20th century, when it was consolidated as a Citation: Nieto Masot, A.; Ríos mass phenomenon. From the 1960s onwards, the tourism sector in Spain began to have Rodríguez, N. Rural Tourism as a an important role in the country’s economy, as well as being used to end the isolation that Development Strategy in the country had due to the Franco dictatorship.
