New Tatra images on Zooniverse

🏔️📸 Today we're adding new camera-trap images from the Tatra National Park to our European Camera Trap Zooniverse Project.🐻🐺🦌🦊What will you discover? Help us identify the wildlife captured by our cameras and contribute to European biodiversity research. Every classification counts – whether you identify 5 images or 500. 💚

Successful symposium of WildINTEL and BIG_PICTURE at ECCB 2026!

Earlier this month, the WildINTEL and BIG_PICTURE projects joined forces at the 8th European Congress of Conservation Biology (ECCB 2026) in Leiden to host a two-part symposium on the future of camera-trap based wildlife monitoring. Across 12 presentations, researchers from both biodiversa+ projects and partner institutions shared the latest advances
