KraMobil | SPOTTERON

KraMobil (Crows in the Zoo) is a FWF-funded Citizen Science Project of the University of Vienna in cooperation with ZooVienna. The aim of the project is to actively involve zoo visitors and citizen scientists in the research activities of the University of Vienna (Department of Behavioural and Cognitive Biology together with the Konrad Lorenz Research Center). Everybody is warmly invited to participate! The aim of the project is to find out which species and/or subspecies of crows can be found at which specific locations in the zoo and how they interact with each other. The observations will provide insights into the group dynamics of crows and the influence of ecological factors (e.g. food availability or presence of zoo animals) on their social behaviour. Note that while a special focus is given to the area of the Zoo Vienna, observations from elsewhere in and around Vienna are welcome. The Citizen Science App is running on the SPOTTERON platform.
