You can take part in the PTES surveys
For Living with Mammals, volunteers are asked to record sightings of any wild mammals in a garden or local green space such as a park or allotment, by submitting weekly records online.
“No-one likes seeing roadkill, but by counting casualties we can spot how populations are changing and, importantly, where conservation action is needed. Recording roadkill, and the wildlife you see in your garden, allows us to better understand our wild neighbours and help protect the species most in need,” Wembridge explains.
In the survey’s 20-year history, the data has also shown an increase in the numbers of muntjac being recorded, while a decrease in the numbers of bats and rabbits has been noticed. Numbers of foxes and grey squirrels have changed little.
