Description
The Field Study Group is a branch of the Dutch Mammal Society (Zoogdiervereniging) is focused on field studies and aims to keep up the knowledge on mammal identification and mammal survey techniques up to date, as well as to exchange and spread this knowledge to its members and others.
The Field Study Group carryes out yearly a mammal study camp in abroad and in the Netherlands. These camps aim at collecting information on the occurrence of mammal species in the targeted areas, increasing this way the information on species distribution, checking new research methods, exchanging this experience and information with the local partners.
The Summer Mammal Study Camps aim at inventory of the biodiversity with focus on mammals in different parts of Europe and are realised in partnership with local research and nature conservation organisations.
The dataset holds observations made in Bulgaria, Montenegro and Switzerland
Data Records
