Título: | New technologies for monitoring abundance and harvest of game species: App "Becada" |
Autor: | Guzmán, José Luis CSIC ORCID; Arroyo, Beatriz CSIC ORCID | Fecha de publicación: | 2017 | Citación: | 33rd IUBG Congress - 14th Perdix Symposium (2017) | Resumen: | To develop sustainable management models of natural resources it is necessary to understand abundance changes, an appropriate knowledge of the social and economic context, and to design tools for monitoring populations. Instead, it is relatively common to base management decisions on tradition or economic reasons rather than in studies over animal ecology or population dynamics. In the case of the Eurasian Woodcock Scolopax rusticola in Spain, there are as many different management plans as political territories and in no case these differences are based in ecological differences. Despite this, there are currently new opportunities of collaboration between those using the resources and those designing and assessing management. An example is citizen science, a collaboration between citizens and scientists in which the former participate in data collection and the latter lead and organise the scientific work. An example of how a group of resource users can organise itself and make citizen science is the “Club de Cazadores de Becada” (CCB), the main woodcock hunters´ association in Spain. They have been collecting hunting bags and woodcock abundance data over the last 15 years and making them available for scientific research. With the aim of expanding and facilitating this approach, since October 2016 the app “Becada” is available for Spanish woodcock hunters. It is a free smart-phone application developed to gather information about the abundance and hunting bag variations of woodcock between years and territories. The app has several screens where collaborators can introduce hunting data, the number of woodcock observed and hunted, and other relevant information (e.g. location or the time of hunting); collaborations can see global results obtained from all collaborators in several graphs as well (Figure 1). We present in this poster the first results of the app “Becada” as a hunting species monitoring tool. There have been participants from 33 provinces in Spain (Figure 2). In addition, we analyse the differences of results obtained from the app and CCB data, and provide estimates of the Spanish woodcock hunting bag based on available data. | Descripción: | Resumen del trabajo presentado al 33rd International Union of Game Biologist Congress and 14th Perdix Symposium, celebrados en Montpellier (Francia) del 22 al 25 de agosto de 2017. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/175260 |
