The paper presents the findings from observations of predatory attacks on birds that become entangled in nets during the trapping process. The data were obtained at the Varlam Island station located in Pasvik National Nature Reserve (Murmansk Region). During the seven-year monitoring period from 2018 to 2024, we have recorded attacks by great gray shrike, northern hawk owl, ermine, and American mink.
Funding
The work was carried out within the framework of the state assignment for Pasvik Nature Reserve and a multi-year program aimed at biodiversity monitoring in the Pechengsky District, with the support of JSC Kola Mining and Metallurgical Company JSC.
