The smallest of the Portuguese vultures, the Britango is a generalist species and, unlike the vast majority of vultures, in addition to eating rotting meat, it also consumes reptiles, amphibians and insects. Currently classified as “In Danger”, this species has a declining population in Portugal.
Endemic to the Iberian Peninsula, in southern Europe, the Iberian lynx specialises in hunting rabbits. The sharp drop in wild rabbit populations, as a result of two diseases, contributed to the decline of the Iberian lynx. A lynx, especially the youngest animals, wanders across wide areas, extending over 100 km.
The Iberian imperial eagle is a Critically Endangered species. The problems that most affect this species are the use of poisons, shooting, and electrocution, as well as human activities that disrupt their reproduction period. The population of the Iberian imperial eagle currently has a growing trend.
The Sorraia horse got its name from the valley of the River Sorraia, in Coruche, where this species was recovered from an animal nucleus. As herbivores, they play a fundamental role in ecosystems, because they help shape the forest, maintaining pastures and open areas.
The red deer almost became extinct in Portugal during the 20th century, but its numbers have been increasing. Although still relatively rare, it is considered an expanding species. Like many deer, the red deer is a social species. For most of the year, males and females form groups separated by sex.
