Email

Hi Anne,
Thanks for your email. It's soo great to hear your're coming to Salta. I think the best time to come is in winter or spring  because in the summer it rains too much.
If you want to meet young people you could go out to the discos , I suggest you "Club Nueve XXI ", it's a fun place , the boys are handsome and the music is really catchy. Also if you want to visit the amazings places such as Cafayate or Cachi , you can always meet people , in fact you don't want to do that you can go to folklore festivals , there's no way that you don't make friends !
In winter the weather is quite cold , so you should bring some heavy clothes, but in the spring it's changeable so you might bring light clothes for the daytime and a sweater or a jacket for the evenings.
Thanks a lot for your invitation to join the group. If I'm free I'd love to do. However I'll show you some amazings things to do here , so let me know when you're coming !

All the best.

Agostina

Endangered Iberian lynx


                                             Iberian lynx
The Iberian lynx is one of the most endangered cat species in the world, which lives in the  Iberian Peninsula in Southern Europe. If the Iberian lynx died out, according to the SOS lynx, it would be the first feline species to become extinct since prehistoric times. Now a days there’s only two groups in Andalucia isolated each others with almost 300 lynxes and another in Montes de Toledo with 15 lynxes.
The  Iberian lynx is the only meat eater considered as an expert in rabbits , the European rabbit is its main pray, A male requires one rabbit per day; a female bringing up cubs will eat three rabbits per day
They  critical status is mainly due to habitat loss, poisoning, road casualties, feral dogs and poaching. Its habitat loss is due mainly to infrastructure improvement, urban and resort development and tree monocultivation, which serves to break the lynx's distribution area. In addition, the lynx prey population of rabbits is also declining due to diseases such as myxomatosis and hemorrhagic pneumonia.
SOS Lynx is a conservation charity based in Portugal, working to prevent the extinction of the Iberian lynx
