Rewilding lions in Peninsula of Iberia... Theorically, it would be possible. This video I come just to discover remains in the theory, but it seems to be interesting:
" 20 fevr.2025 For thousands of years, lions roamed the wild landscapes of the Iberian Peninsula. From the powerful Eurasian cave lion to the majestic Barbary lion, these apex predators played a crucial role in shaping ecosystems. But over time, they vanished—hunted, displaced, and forgotten.
Now, conservationists are asking a bold question: Can we bring lions back?
In this video, we explore the history of lions in Spain and Portugal, their extinction, and the possibility of rewilding them to restore nature’s balance. Could the return of the king help control herbivore populations, regenerate forests, and revive ancient predator-prey relationships? And most importantly—can humans and lions coexist in harmony?
Join us on this fascinating journey into the past, present, and future of lions in the Iberian Peninsula. "
