A 'mythical' all-white Iberian lynx has been spotted for the first time in Spain, making history.
An all-white, leucistic Iberian lynx was seen in Jaén, Spain by photographer Angel Hidalgo. The big cat's appearance is reminiscent of a mythical creature, similar to those seen in cartoons or resembling a real-life Pokémon.
Images and videos of the white Iberian lynx have been circulating since its sighting on October 22nd in Jaén, Spain, a region known for producing high-quality olive oil.
Although this is not the first instance of an all-white Iberian lynx in Europe, such sightings are extremely rare, with legends of these cats dating back centuries.
It looks like a real-life Pokémon, if we are being honest.
