Abstract

Many vertebrate species are experiencing a global decline, and the barrier effect and habitat fragmentation caused by roads and roadkills may be one of its triggering factors (Shepard et al., 2008). For this reason, in recent years there has been an increased interest in the effect of roads and accidental animal roadkills (Malo et al., 2005; Shepard et al., 2008; Woltz et al., 2008), as evidenced by the high number of scientific articles published on this topic in recent years
