agriculture and urbanization. To grow their economies the develo** countries of Latin …

Direct road mortality and the barrier effect of roads are typically identified as one of the
greatest threats to wildlife. In addition, collisions with large mammals are also a threat to …

Roadkill estimates for different species and species groups are available for many countries
and regions. However, there is a lack of information from tropical countries, including from …

Millions of animals are killed on roads annually due to collisions with vehicles, particularly
medium–large mammals. Studies on mammal road-kill flourished in Brazil in the last decade …

While road network expansion connects human settlements between themselves, it also
leads to deforestation and land use changes, reducing the connectivity between natural …

We believe that in tropics we need a community approach to evaluate road impacts on
wildlife, and thus, suggest mitigation measures for groups of species instead a focal-species …

Smooth-coated otters (Lutrogale perspicillata) were transient in Singapore before one
resident family group was observed in 1998, presumably having recolonized from …

Roads are one of the main threats to mammal species conservation. Identifying relationships
between landscape and road-kill patterns is necessary to build predictive models and to …

Across the world, many wildlife studies rely on data collected by volunteers. Roadkill studies
often rely on data collected by non-experts including road maintenance personnel and …

The negative effects of roads on wildlife populations are a growing concern. Movement
