Last October I travelled to Riópar, a small village in the Segura Mountains in Albacete. There is a Nature Education Centre, “La Dehesa”, where you can see lots of animals of the Iberian fauna in captivity. Among them, Druso, a wild cat which was taken to the Centre when it was very young. It was bred as a domestic cat. As it is not afraid of humans, you can watch it easily. This is a portrait of Druso.
