Netherlands Annual Ecology Meeting 2024

Many changes are occurringamongst predators: someexamples are the return of wolves and golden jackals in Europe, the unknown conservation status and decline of mustelids in the Netherlands, and the growing recognition of domestic cats as invasive species worldwide. These changes lead to heated debates in society. In this session, we explore important research questions: How do we effectively monitor predator species? What roles do they play within ecosystems? And, what long-term conservation measures should we take?
