ENETWILD CONSORTIUM
The Department of Veterinary Medicine of the University of Sassari is partner of the ENETWILD consortium, a European network of wildlife professionals engaged in providing reliable data on species distribution and abundance of selected host species and their pathogens to the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Present focus of ENETWILD is the wild boar and its role in the spread of the African Swine Fever virus across Europe. More info at www.enetwild.com
In 2019, members of the Enetwild consortium, including the Department of Veterinary Medicine of the University of Sassari, launched a parallel project named MammalNet, also funded by EFSA. This project aims to promote the collection of data on the occurrence of wild mammals across Europe using citizen science. The project has implemented three applications: iMammalia, MammalWeb and Agouti, respectively for general users, camera trappers and scientists. More info at https://mammalnet.com/
