The LIFELYNXCONNECT project was present at the 22nd edition of the Seville Science Fair organised by the Sociedad Andaluza para la Divulgación de la Ciencia (Andalusian Society for the Popularisation of Science) https://feriadelaciencia.org/01_FERIACIENCIA/

The team in charge of genetic monitoring of lynx populations showed the public the process carried out by our technicians and techniques to find out which lynx are in a territory, how they move and even the genetic status of the populations through their droppings (non-invasive samples).

The participants became real detectives of nature, identifying the lynx to which each lynx’s excrement corresponded by means of the genomic information they contain.

Activity organised by the Doñana Biological Station (EBD-CSIC), with the participation of Laia Pérez Sorribes, Laura Soriano, Lucia Mayor, Andrej Gonev, Enrico Bazzicalupo and Lorena Lorenzo.
