About Catarina Campos Ferreira
I’m passionate about applied conservation science, particularly that of carnivores and their prey. My research has been primarily linked to small mammal management for sustainable hunting and the conservation of predator communities in Mediterranean ecosystems. Many of my findings have provided an important contribution for policy-makers to design species-specific conservation strategies of threatened species in Iberia, namely the Iberian Lynx Action Plan that included guidelines for the reintroduction of the species in Portugal.
My current research focuses on the effects of human-driven environmental changes, such as landscape fragmentation and climate change, on carnivore population ecology to design improved management and conservation strategies, using Lynx species from North America and Europe as models.
