The community of Terrestric mammals from the Sierra del Carche will be the object of analysis and study to draw conclusions and strategies that help Improve your preservation and protection. An initiative that also aims to update the knowledge about the fauna that lives in this nature park.
This space is located in the Altiplano of the Murcia region and serves as a refuge for large biodiversity and is the home of species such as the Montés Cat, Gynneta, Spit or Montés, among others. Some of these species can be found in the list of wild species in a special protection regime, which makes a periodic evaluation of the conservation status essential.
The study will be conducted with advanced photo tramp techniques, A method that makes identification of species possible without disturbing their natural behavior thanks to the installation of cameras At various strategic points of the park.
A study will analyze the land mammals of the Sierra del Carche to improve their protection
The Ministry of Environment has started a detailed investigation into the community of land mammals in the Regional park of the Sierra del CarcheThe autonomous community reported this Friday. This initiative, co -financed with European and regional funds, is intended to update knowledge about the park’s fauna and to determine management measures for nature conservation.
The regional secretary of energy, sustainability and climate action, María Cruz Ferreira, has emphasized the “relevance” of this project since this study, since this study “It will make it possible to know the current situation of mammal species in the area more accurately and to design effective strategies for their protection.”
The Sierra del Carche Regional Park, located in the Altiplano of the Murcia region, houses a large biodiversity and is the home of species such as the Montés Cat, the Gynneta, the Spit and the Montés Geit, among others. Some of these species are found in the List of wild species in a special protection regime, which makes a periodic evaluation of the conservation status essential.
The study is based on advanced techniques of planA method that makes identification of the species possible without interfering their natural behavior by installing cameras in strategic points of the park, selected from an earlier analysis of the existing documentation and the consultation with experts and managers of the protected area.
The regional secretary indicated that “the use of staircases cameras is a fundamental tool in research into wildlife, because it offers us images and data of the species in their habitat without changing their routines.” Specific studies into hunting species such as Wild boar and rabbit will also be carried out, with the aim of the evaluation of the Impact of his presence on the Parkecosystem And propose appropriate management strategies.
The study will not only identify the distribution and abundance of the species, but will also include an analysis of their habitat thanks to the realization of transects. With this information, management proposals will be developed to improve the preservation of this Fauna group and to guarantee the ecological balance. Ferreira emphasized that “this work strengthens the dedication of the regional government for the protection of the natural environment and will enable us to develop more effective policy for maintaining biodiversity.”
The research, with a year, has 13,794 euros budget and is part of the integral management plan of the protected spaces of the Altiplano of the Murcia region. The project is financed by 60 percent with Federer Funds and the remaining 40 percent comes from community resources.
This study represents a different step in the regional government strategy for the protection and knowledge of the natural heritage of the Murcia region, to guarantee a management of protected spaces based on updated scientific data and when applying the best conservation practices.
