Historical studies about fauna are usually carried out from a biological perspective. Biologists understand that ancient 74 biogeography, behavioral data, or environments are key issues for conservation biology. Therefore, they conducted studies concerning past times. Sometimes we find that these historical studies are not as productive as they should be. This happens because of the nature of the historical documents, the meaning of the language or the historical context. We get more than 300 references about Lynxes. 254 of the references are related with Lynx locations. We made a proposal for evolution of Linx population from Ecohistory. Work with historical documents It´s very important for Ecohistory and future works of Conservation Biology.
