Other bigger birds such as the&nbsp;booted eagle&nbsp;(<em>Aquila pennata<\/em>), the&nbsp;golden eagle&nbsp;(<em>Aquila chrysaetos<\/em>), the&nbsp;northern goshawk (<em>Accipiter gentilis<\/em>) and the&nbsp;Eurasian sparrowhawk&nbsp;(<em>Accipiter nisus<\/em>) lurck during the day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the night, the&nbsp;tawny owl&nbsp;or&nbsp;brown owl&nbsp;(<em>Strix aluco<\/em>) and the&nbsp;Eurasian eagle-owl&nbsp;(<em>Bubo bubo<\/em>) do the same. The presence of both the Euroasian eagle-owl and the golden eagle has been the reason why &nbsp;European regulations declared this region as &#8216;Special Protection Area&#8217; (SPA).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\t\tAmong the 38 species of mammals, the ones which stand out the most are the \t\tEspu\u00f1a squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris subspecies hoffmanni), the&nbsp;red fox&nbsp;(<em>Vulpes <\/em><em>\t<\/em><em>\t<\/em><em>\t<\/em><em>vulpes<\/em>), the&nbsp;wild boar&nbsp;(<em>Sus scrofa<\/em>), the&nbsp;garden dormouse&nbsp;(<em>Eliomys quercinus<\/em>), and \t\tthe European wildcat (<em>Felis Silvestris<\/em>); but also several species of mustelids like the \t\tbeech marten (<em>Martes foina<\/em>).
