My interests are diverse and include: (i) brown bear ecology and behaviour in the Cantabrian Mountains (NW Spain) and, more generally, brown bear populations in human-modified landscapes; (ii) large carnivore-human conflicts, in particular large carnivores attacks on humans; (iii) otter ecology and behaviour; (iv) floater dynamics and natal/breeding dispersal; (v) movement ecology; and (vi) animal communication by visual signalling
