Submit mammal records

Fox cubs by Christine Cassidy

Mammals are difficult to record because they are rarely seen; we often need to use other clues, such as tracks or scats, to help confirm their presence in an area. They can be a great indicator of the quality of natural habitats and biodiversity within Northern Ireland. However, many threats endanger mammals in the modern world and CEDaR would like to find out what is happening to the populations of our furry friends.  Where do they live?  Are we doing enough to ensure they are healthy?  Have they had to move because we are encroaching on their homes?

Notes about using the map:
  • use the + sign on the right hand side of the map to change the base mapping used from Google to OpenStreetMap.
  • To create an accurate and useful record, use your mouse to drag the area of interest to the centre of the map window and use the zoombar on the left hand side to zoom in tight to the area where you made the sighting. When you have zoomed in, click on the location - this will autofill the Spatial Reference box above.

Please tick all the species you saw and any other information about them.

Determiner: if you have had an expert confirm the identification of a record please add their name in the 'Determiner' field. This will help when the record is being verified.
