BIOMONITORING BY CAMERA TRAPS
Camera trap is a device that contains the photo camera and a motion sensor that activates the camera to capture an image and / or a video clip of an object that activated it. The camera trap method is increasingly applied in the research and monitoring of elusive wildlife species. Members of Bioterra are involved in many research and monitoring projects of populations of different species, focusing on large carnivores. In addition, they monitored the effectiveness of green bridges as important sites of the highway permeability for wildlife.
Bioterra currently conducts camera trap monitoring projects in National Park Northern Velebit and Nature Park Biokovo, in collaboration with NatureSpy (United Kingdom) and the photos resulting from this collaboration are marked by the stakeholders' logos.
