Cabañeros National Park (in Spanish: ''Parque Nacional de Cabañeros'') is a national park in the Montes de Toledo, Spain. It falls within two provinces, the northwest of Ciudad Real and the southwest of Toledo. The Park was designated in 1995 and has an area of .〔(Information about Cabañeros from Environment Ministry website ), accessed April 2009 〕 It lies between the Estena and Bullaque rivers, extending into the Chorito and Miraflores mountain ranges. It is the best and largest surviving area of Iberian Mediterranean forest, with an enormous variety of plant species. It also includes sites of geological interest (Paleozoic sites known as ''Cámbrico y Ordovícico del Parque Nacional de Cabañeros'').〔Gutiérrez-Marco, J.C.; García-Bellido, D.C.; Rábano, I.; Baeza Chico, E.; Sá, A.A. & Sarmiento, G.N. 2011.

Mammals include the otter in the Estena river and four species of ungulates: wild boar, red deer, roe deer and (in the most forested areas) fallow deer.〔http://www.parquenacionalcabaneros.com/fauna_elparque_60.html〕 The park is potentially a habitat for the Iberian lynx, a critically endangered feline. However, lynx have been sighted only intermittently in the area in recent years,〔Pérez de Albéniz, Javier (2006) ''El Line Ibérico: Una batalla por la supervivencia''. Lynx Ed., p.50〕 perhaps because of a shortage of rabbits, the main prey species.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Cabañeros National Park begins habitat rehabilitation for the Lynx )〕 The Toledo Mountains have been used as a site for the reintroduction of the lynx as part of a LIFE project. The Park is a Special Protection Area for birdlife,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Important Bird Areas factsheet: Toledo mountains-Cabañeros ) Downloaded from http://www.birdlife.org on 11/01/2014〕 and provides a home for the following notable species: *Black stork (rare but not threatened) *Eurasian black vulture (near threatened), second largest breeding population *Spanish imperial eagle (threatened) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cabañeros National Park」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
