Sažetak

Summary
Genetically identified kinship relationships enable us valuable insight into wild animal pedigrees, which are almost impossible to reconstruct by direct observations. Data on pedigrees are of fundamental importance for analysis of reproductive success, inbreeding, selection and gene flow. Dinaric Eurasian lynx (Lynx lynx) includes animals from Slovenia, Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. The species is strictly protected in all three countries, being threatened by loss of genetic diversity and poaching. Kinship analysis of 91 genotypes, on 19 microsatellite loci, using program Colony provided data about family groups with offspring sharing one or both parents. A total of 21 (72 %) out of 29 analyzed offspring, whose samples were collected in the 2000–2010 period, were related to each other, confirming low population number and presence of inbreeding.
