| Radio-tracking of six species of carnivores in the Do¤ana National Park, SW Spain | |
| 1986 Mesogee (46): 113-120 | |
The ecology of the guild of carnivores of the Donana National Park has been analysed since October 1982 in order to know theri interspecific relationships and to assess the population dynamics and the conservation of the Iberian lynx (Lynx pardina). We have used radio-tracking as a basic field technique, with the following species: lynx (Lynx pardina), fox (Vulpes vulpes), wild cat (Felis silvestris), mongoose (Herpestes ichneumon), badger (Meles meles), and genet (Genetta genetta). This communication summarizes our field experience (research team, traps, radio-tracking equipment and data collection strategies) with special reference to the limitations of the technique and its future use. |
