This project aims to analyse the impact of the presence of feral cats on wildlife in a peri-urban area with a riverside forest.

Subproject for teams contributing camera trap data to the Mammal Society's University Mammal Challenge in winter 2025.

Thornhill Carrs Nature Reserve:

This 30 hectare area of former farmland is a unique site, rare within The Peak District National Park for its unmanaged Wildness. It is currently home to a fantastic array of wild woodland, scrub, and beautiful wild flower meadows.

An inclusive collaborative research project led by the Universities of Aberdeen and St Andrews with the overarching goal of studying the structure, dynamics, and influence of predator communities.

The Eastern Lowlands Red Squirrel Group is currently funded through the Red Squirrel Survival Trust and covers the Kingdom of Fife, Clackmannanshire and parts of Stirling and Perth and Kinross. We monitor red and grey squirrels across our entire project area using a variety of methods - one of them being the use of camera traps.

In the IncluScience-Me project (Citizen Science in schools to promote scientific culture and biodiversity conservation), researchers, along with kindergarten and primary school students from 9 educational centres in the province of Córdoba (Spain), place camera traps to study the presence of wild mammals in an area near the school. The project aims to improve knowledge about native fauna under the framework of citizen science, which contributes to a better understanding of the distribution of recorded species. The IncluScience-Me project is coordinated by the GESBIO Research Group at the University of Córdoba, funded by the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology (FECYT) - Ministry of Science and Innovation, and the Ministry of Universities. Additionally, the University of Castilla la Mancha, the National Wildlife Research Institute (CSIC-UCLM-JCCM), the Maximes Association, and the Association for Scientific Outreach and Critical Thinking of Ciudad Real are all participating.
