Are motorways potential stressors of roadside wood mice (Apodemus sylvaticus)...
Linear infrastructures represent one of the most important human impacts on natural habitats and exert several effects on mammal populations. Motorways are recognized as a major... -
Habitat suitability vs landscape connectivity determining roadkill risk at a ...
Collisions between wildlife and vehicles represent the main conflict between infrastructures and ecosystems. Road mortality is the largest single cause of death for many... -
Assessing the relative effect of road- and carcass-related factors on searche...
Carcass counts along roads can notably underestimate the number of wildlife casualties due to several sources of bias, including observers’ inability to detect carcasses during... -

Impact of culvert flooding on carnivore crossings.
Along many roads worldwide, drainage culverts are the only structures wildlife can safely use to cross. However, culverts inundate and can become unavailable to terrestrial... -
Accounting for connectivity uncertainties in predicting roadkills: a comparat...
Functional connectivity modeling is increasingly used to predict the best spatial location for over- or underpasses, to mitigate road barrier effects and wildlife roadkills.... -

Artificial loss of natural habitats is one of the main threats to the conservation of many animal species. In temperate zones, intensification of agricultural practices is the... -
Large and non-specific bird mortality in a high-speed railway traversing a Sp...
Human activities alter ecosystems where they are built and they frequently shape in the midor long-term their structure and function. Thus, it is essential to know how new... -
Vertebrate road-kill patterns in Mediterranean habitats: who, when and where.
Road-kill is the most recognized impact of traffic and an important threat for biodiversity. Nevertheless, most research on this topic deals with particular species or with road... -
Mortalidad de vertebrados en el tramo Ourense-Penalba de la CN-120 durante 1989.
Se prospectó a pie y de manera semanal la mortalidad de vertebrados en una nueva carretera nacional en la provincia de Orense (NO España) con el objetivo de valorar el impacto... -
The effect of roads on edge permeability and movement patterns for small mamm...
Increased edge density is among the main negative effects of habitat loss and fragmentation. Roads are linear infrastructures that may promote barrier effects due to disturbance... -
Factors affecting culvert use by vertebrates along two stretches of road in s...
A major target for environmental managers when trying to minimise the road-barrier effect on wildlife is to improve permeability to animal movements. Previous studies have... -
El lobo en Cantabria.
Se investigaron las causas de mortalidad de 42 lobos entre 1973 y 1981: 0 atropellos. Entre 1985 y 1987 (n=43) solamente se detectó un atropello. Palabras clave:... -
