Influence of lunar cycle on amphibian roadkill.
Roads are responsible for thousands of roadkill per year worldwide. Different taxonomic groups are vulnerable to this mortality source, but amphibians are especially vulnerable.... -
Efectos de borde y la eficacia de áreas protegidas en la conservación de mamí...
Road casualties account together with poaching for 85% of mortality causes in the badger population living in Doñana, SW Spain. Los atropellos significan, junto con el... -
New real-time mitigation measures based on animal-vehicle collision spatio-te...
Road ecologists have proposed a wide range of mitigation measures in order to reduce the number of animal-vehicle collisions (AVC). Some measures aim to modify driver behaviour... -
Frontiers for conservation: targeting European borders as conservation areas.
It is widely known that political borders should not hamper wildlife. Conservation actions involving several countries are perceived to bring large-scale benefits to nature... -

The effects of a tunnel construction on the water quality of Ulzama river were investigated. Several physical, chemical and biological parameters were measured at different... -
Habitat quality predicts the distribution of a lizard in fragmented woodlands...
Organisms often face a higher risk of local extinction in fragmented than in continuous habitat. However, whether populations are affected by reduced size and connectivity of... -
Foraging, feeding, and physiological stress responses of wild wood mice to in...
In nature, animals are exposed to a broad range of threats imposed by predators, which may strongly influence the ecology of prey species directly or indirectly by affecting... -
Railway ecology vs. road ecology: similarities and differences.
Railway ecology is an emerging discipline. In this review, we focus on what is known today regarding the impacts of railways on wildlife, and on the methods to identify,... -
Spatial–temporal patterns in mediterranean carnivore road casualties: consequ...
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... -
Community response of mammalian predators and their prey to motorways: implic...
Understanding the interactions between predators and prey is essential for predicting the effects of disturbances to ecosystems. Motorways produce changes in the surrounding... -
Do the size and shape of spatial units jeopardize the road mortality-risk fac...
We aimed to evaluate the role of spatial units with different shapes and sizes on road-kill modeling for small vertebrate species. We used the road-kill records of two reptiles,... -

Transport infrastructure shapes foraging habitat in a raptor community.
Transport infrastructure elements are widespread and increasing in size and length in many countries, with the subsequent alteration of landscapes and wildlife communities.... -
Living on the verge: are roads a more suitable refuge for small mammals than ...
The retention of natural habitat corridors is a useful and practical conservation tool that can attenuate the effects of habitat loss and fragmentation on wildlife. Linear... -
Herpetofauna and roads: a review.
Roads and traffic are tightly related to some of the mains threats for biodiversity. Road network affects wildlife populations due to, among other effects, partial occupation... -
Informe provisional del seguimiento de la mortalidad de vertebrados en las ca...
Six transects across three different biotopes of Córdoba province (S Spain) were carried out on a monthly basis. A black spot for amphibians was discovered near a temporal pool... -
