Descrição

Camera-trap detections of wild and invasive terrestrial mammals collected across mainland Spain between 2014 and 2026. The records were gathered by the MOMAT project of SECEM at more than 1 700 sites and include species identity, number of individuals, exact or centroid coordinates, and deployment effort details. Dataset produced for national conservation reporting and atlas updates, under the MITECO–TRAGSATEC programme funded by EU NextGenerationEU.

Título Proyecto de Monitorización de Mamíferos Terrestres (MOMAT)
Financiamento All data presented in this dataset were generated through primary field surveys carried out within the project “Mejora del conocimiento del estado de conservación de la fauna terrestre continental de España (especies autóctonas y exóticas invasoras): Informes sexenales del artículo 17 (Directiva Hábitats) y del artículo 24 (Especies Invasoras), y actualización de atlas y libros rojos”, commissioned by the Spanish Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (MITECO), implemented by TRAGSATEC, and funded by the European Union (NextGenerationEU)
Descrição da Área de Estudo The study area encompasses the entire Spanish territory, including the Iberian Peninsula, the Balearic Islands, the Canary Islands, Ceuta, and Melilla. This region spans a wide range of bioclimatic zones, from Atlantic and Alpine in the north, to Mediterranean and semi-arid regions in the south and southeast, as well as Macaronesian climates in the Canary Islands. Elevation ranges from sea level to over 3,400 m in the Pyrenees and Sierra Nevada, resulting in steep climatic and habitat gradients. The landscape is highly heterogeneous, comprising forests (deciduous, coniferous, and mixed), shrublands, grasslands, wetlands, rivers and streams, coastal areas, agricultural lands, and urbanized zones. Such environmental diversity supports a broad spectrum of terrestrial and semi-aquatic mammal species with varying ecological requirements and detectability, making standardized and complementary survey methods essential for comprehensive monitoring.

Métodos de Amostragem

Camera trapping was used to detect medium- and large-sized terrestrial mammals following SECEM’s standard protocol. Passive infrared cameras were placed at 50 cm height, typically three per 10 × 10 km grid cell in professional surveys (sometimes one in volunteer surveys), in habitats likely to maximize detections such as trails or bottlenecks. Cameras operated continuously for a fixed period, and each deployment was recorded as a sampling event with associated metadata (location, duration, detections, individuals, observer, images, and taxonomy). This method provides efficient, non-invasive presence data for elusive species.

Descrição dos passos do método:

  1. Camera trapping was used to detect medium- and large-sized terrestrial mammals. The surveys were conducted by both trained professionals and volunteers. Passive infrared camera traps were deployed at knee height (50 cm), following the standard protocol established by the Spanish Society for the Conservation and Study of Mammals (SECEM). In each 10 × 10 km grid cell, three cameras were typically deployed for professional surveys, while in some volunteer surveys only one camera was sometimes used. Cameras were placed in the predominant habitats within each grid cell likely to maximize detection probability, such as animal trails or natural bottlenecks, and operated continuously for a predefined sampling period. Each camera deployment constituted a sampling event, and records include information on location, deployment duration, detection date, number of individuals, responsible person, image identifiers, and taxonomy. Camera trapping provides a non-invasive and highly efficient method for obtaining presence data for elusive species with minimal disturbance.
