Citizen science is becoming more and more important as a way to gather field data about elusive animals like mammals. Most likely a citizen science project is going on in your country too. Mammals are everywhere in Europe.

In many countries not only scientists collect data, also citizens and non scientific organisations collect data. Actually, without the sightings collected by non-scientists we wouldn’t be able to get overviews of the distribution of mammals. The monitoring of population trends depends on the commitment of volunteers. By including your sightings in one of the portals you deliver an important contribution to the conservation and study of mammals in Europe. Your data will be used for research, advocacy, habitat management and education.
