An Introduction to Doñana

Can you imagine a land where the animals and plants enjoy freedom as their birthright? A land whose entire area is under protection? A land which changes with each season and where every day has a surprise in store? A land where almost 900 species of flora and 450 of fauna live in harmony? Well Doñana is all of that, and we call it a "land" because its area is larger than that of Luxemburg. It occupies 0.59% of Spanish national territory, most of it in a province where you come across a protected area everywhere you turn.

Venture into Doñana and enjoy a first-hand documentary. Be there!




Did you know that...?
• Did you know that the eucalyptus trees growing in Doñana come from Australia, where there are some 600 different species of eucalyptus?
• Did you know that the lynx owes its name to the hero of Greek mythology Lynceus? He was the Pilot of Jason's ship - the Argo - and was renowned for his keen eyesight. It was said in Homer's Odyssey that Lynceus could 'see into the hearts of the darkest forests and to the depths of the deepest oceans'.
• Did you know that in 1929 Dromedary camels were released in the area?

• Did you know that in 1951 a game warden killed the last remaining wolf in Doñana?
• Did you know that in 1952 the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) was founded with the aim of saving Doñana, and it bought up several estates in order to protect their natural features?
