Because mammals matter... On land, in the air and water, they are essential keystone predator and prey species, shapers of our environment & indicators of habitat quality. |
...and many are still threatened By habitat loss, agricultural intensification, conflict with humans, and competition, disease & hybridisation from non-native invasive species. |
We urgently need answers... How are mammals affected by these threats? Where are declines occurring? Which populations are vulnerable? How will policy reforms effect them? |
...to fill the gaps in our knowledge Population data is seriously lacking. Help us find out where populations are thriving or declining so we can take action where it's needed. |
Every time you see a mammal, we need you to submit the record to help increase our understanding of mammal distribution and abundance across the British Isles for the National Mammal Atlas. All records made between 2000 to 2015 will be accepted. Read more...
