Video from: Integrated wildlife monitoring, a pilot trial in Spain

<p>This study aims to report the implementation of the first nationwide pilot trial of balanced IWM in Europe, using a network of 11 pilot monitoring sites in Spain. The insights obtained in this pilot IWM trial will help to further develop a comprehensive IWM and serve as a reference for implementing IWM systems in other regions. For this purpose, a&nbsp;grid of 20 camera traps (Browning Strike Force HD ProX, Browning Arms Company&reg;, Morgan, Utah, USA) was deployed for two months at each study site (n=11).&nbsp;REM was applied to wild boar (<em>Sus scrofa</em>), red deer (<em>Cervus elaphus</em>), and red fox (<em>Vulpes vulpes</em>) as the most frequently detected species. Relative abundance indexes, namely trapping rate and relative occupancy index, were calculated for the remaining, less frequently detected species. We also constructed&nbsp;static social networks, one for each study site (shown in the video).</p>
