THE Spanish Government has ditched plans to build a 300-kilometre motorway between Andalucía and central Spain over fears colonies of the endangered Iberian lynx were at risk.

The road linking Toledo with Córdoba would have cut through the Sierra Toledo and the Sierra Morena mountain ranges - two of the last global refuges of the nocturnal, wild cat.
Colonies of protected birdlife and the sole remaining habitat of the Iberian wolf in the south of Spain were also in danger had plans for the AP41 toll road gone ahead, a spokesman for the Ministry of the Environment said.

personally I think it is about time the Spanish government did something about bull running and bull fighting
but that is a whole other topic. at least this is a step in the right direction.
 
don't get me started on the whole bull issue, i get mad thinking about it :angry:
