Spatial-temporal patterns in Mediterranean carnivore road casualties: Consequences for mitigation

2009-02-01

Abstract excerpt

Many carnivores have been seriously impacted by the expansion of transportation systems and networks; however we know little about carnivore response to the extent and magnitude of road mortality, or which age classes may be disproportionately impacted. Recent research has demonstrated that wildlife-vehicle-collisions (WVC) involving carnivores are modulated by temporal and spatial factors. Thus, we investigated r...
