Description
This database refers to the Carnivora (Mammalia) collection of the MNHNC. The collection is composed by 1016 specimens, collected mostly in Portugal, but also in other countries from Europe, Africa, North America and Arctic, between 1944 and 2003. Most of the specimens are dry preserved, mostly skeletons and/or skins, and a small percentage are whole animals preserved in Ethanol (EtOH). The collection includes several specimens of species with high threat status (IUCN Red List), as for example the Iberian Lynx (Lynx pardinus) and the Wolf (Canis lupus). The Iberian Lynx was considered as "Critically Endangered" (CR) until 2015, when it was downgraded to "Endangered" (EN). In Portugal, the species faced a situation of "pre-extinction"; it is currently under a reintroduction and recovery programme, with a population of around 140 specimens. All data and specimens were verified within the framework of the Portuguese e-Infrastructure for Information and Research on Biodiversity (PORBIOTA).

Méthodes d'échantillonnage
Most of the specimens arrived at the museum through donations, as they are essentially animals found dead by being run over, shot, or poisoned.
| Etendue de l'étude | The collecting sites include Angola, Denmark (Greenland), Finland, France, Mauritania, Morroco, Namibia, Portugal, Spain, Switzerland, and United States of America. However, most specimens come from Portugal mainland. Collected between 1944 and 2003. |
|---|---|
| Contrôle qualité | All initial data was inserted in a specific relational database built specifically for the project, which implemented several quality control methods. In the preparation of the dataset for GBIF publication, data consistency was verified using cluster algorithms using OpenRefine. |
