Transforming wild rabbits’ overpopulation problem into a local biotic resource of Lemnos island
Vasios G., (Corresponding) Gialeli M., Zaragkali F., Roumelioti A., Tsiota G., Koufos G., Tapazidou P., Kakaroglou I., Antoniadis I., Troumbis A.
Topic:
Agroforestry, forest and agricultural sustainability
For more than 20 years, the European Wild Rabbit (WR) (Oryctolagus Cuniculus) is considered a pest in Lemnos island, Greece, due to significant crop damage. Authorities took insufficient actions to control WR overpopulation, resulting only in managing its effect on crop losses with farmers’...Read more
