Abstract

In this study, we identified hotspots of mammal vehicle collisions that occurred on the Çankırı Kırıkkale highway betweenMay and October 2014. We collected 58 records from 6 species. Sixteen casualties occurred on the part of the road with low trafficvolume (1818 vehicles/day) and 42 casualties occurred on the part with moderate traffic volume (4680 vehicles/day). The two specieswith the highest number of records were hedgehogErinaceus concolor(n = 27) and red foxVulpes vulpes(n = 21). Hotspots of mammalvehicle collisions were detected with the CrimeStat3 program using 750-m bandwidth. We identified two spots of high incidence ofroadkill and 3 spots of moderate incidence of roadkill on the highway. Strategies to reduce the incidence of roadkill should be consideredfor these hotspots.
