WildWays

by NINA

What is it about?

Few wildlife habitats are devoid of human activities and infrastructure. Road networks and the traffic they support represent one of the most pronounced and widespread threats to biodiversity. One of many potentially negative impacts occur when wildlife are injured or killed by vehicles. The effects and severity thereof on wildlife populations differ between species, spatially within the same ecosystem, and seasonally. Understanding such dynamics are important to facilitate mitigations measures.

App Store Description

Few wildlife habitats are devoid of human activities and infrastructure. Road networks and the traffic they support represent one of the most pronounced and widespread threats to biodiversity. One of many potentially negative impacts occur when wildlife are injured or killed by vehicles. The effects and severity thereof on wildlife populations differ between species, spatially within the same ecosystem, and seasonally. Understanding such dynamics are important to facilitate mitigations measures.



WildWays has been developed in an attempt to record patterns of road traffic mortalities for wildlife in Murchison Falls National Park (MFNP), Uganda.
MFNP has recently seen largescale road development which will service the imminent onset of oil extraction activities. Increased traffic volumes and speeds are thus of concern. By recording roadkill events you will contribute to documenting the extent of such impacts, and thereby assist managers with monitoring and mitigating these impacts.
