The Road Lab UK

Description

The Road Lab (formerly 'Project Splatter') collates date, location and vertebrate species reported as roadkill by members of the public ('citizen scientists') across the UK.

Project aims:

1. Collate data on UK wildlife roadkill

2. Determine where and when vertebrate species are observed as roadkill by identifying temporal and spatial hotspots

3. Estimate the impact of roads on UK wildlife

4. Raise awareness of the impact of wildlife roadkill on species conservation through our publications, media output and stakeholder engagement

5. Ultimately, reduce the impact of roads on UK wildlife in collaboration with stakeholders

Resources

1. UK Roadkill Records
   The dataset is comprised of ad hoc records of animals seen dead on the road submitted primarily by members of the public (citizen scientists).
