EuroMammals: Collaborative Science in Wildlife Spatial Ecology
​​Collaborative science has become indispensable in addressing the anthropogenic challenges that ecosystems face today. Understanding how wildlife responds to these challenges requires comprehensive data on movement patterns and space use, which can provide crucial insights into how animals adapt to or are constrained by human presence, resource availability, and climate change.
For over 15 years, EuroMammals has been at the forefront of collaborative science in wildlife spatial ecology. This initiative has pioneered data sharing and co-working on both basic and applied research questions, drawing on hundreds of datasets collected across a diverse range of habitats and varying levels of human impact. Through this collaborative approach, EuroMammals has provided unparalleled insights into how mammals across Europe navigate the pressures of human activity, revealing patterns of adjustment and constraint in relation to space and resource use.
​
In this session, we will explore the latest findings and ongoing research facilitated by EuroMammals, highlighting the value of collaborative efforts in advancing our understanding of wildlife spatial ecology. We invite contributions that demonstrate the impact of data sharing and collaboration in revealing how mammals across Europe are responding to the changing landscapes they inhabit.
