The Missing Lynx

The Missing Lynx (Spanish: El Lince Perdido) is a 2008 computer-animated film produced by Spanish studios Kandor Graphics and YaYa! Films.

Plot

Félix, a clumsy and unlucky Iberian lynx, is staying at the animal recovery center at the Doñana National Park, after one of his countless mishaps. When they arrive, however, the national park had undergone security measures while Felix was gone. It is then revealed that mysterious animal kidnappings have occurred throughout national parks, which had caused Felix's national park to be turne into a prison-like structure. In the dead of night, the center is attacked by mercenaries led by Newmann, the self-titled "greatest hunter in the world", hired by an eccentric millionaire, Noé (Noah in the English version), who intends to create a sort of Noah's Ark for threatened species. Assisted by his friends - Gus, a paranoid chameleon; Beeea (Beeety in the English version), a daredevil goat; Astarté, a brave falcon; and Rupert, a poor-sighted mole - Félix (Felix in the English version) must foil Noé's plans. They avoid Newmann's forces as they guide themselves to Noah's ship. There, Newmann, having just forced Noah to give him control of the ship, attempts to kill Felix, but unexpected events leads to the ship sinking, with Newmann supposedly dying. Afterwards, Felix and Lynxette have a baby, and Felix comes upon two people who argue about something before taking Felix to the refuge. The film then ends.

In a post-credits scene, it is shown that Newmann actually survived his encounter at the ship, but now has a fear of cats.

All of the movie takes place in the natural parks of Andalusia. The film was developed using IBM's servers.
