2010 census of Grand hamster terriers occupied in Alsace in the parcels of winter cereals (10 meters between two enumerators) and alfalfa (3 meters between two enumerators) to know the status of the populations. The number of burrows identified under this semi-exhaustive protocol validated by the ONCFS in 2000 is an index of abundance.
__Origin__
The Grand Hamster has been regressing throughout Western Europe for about twenty years. Since 1992, it has enjoyed the status of a “strictly protected” species at European level. In France, he has been protected since 1993. In this context, a national conservation plan specific to the Grand Hamster has been implemented since 2000 (Plans 2000-2004, 2007-2011 and 2012-2016). Monitoring the populations of the species is one of the main areas of work. Based on the identification of occupied burrows, it aims to ensure sufficient knowledge of the evolution of the population data of the species and its geographical location.
Since April 2009, ONCFS has carried out a systematic recording of burrows by GPS, which makes it possible to set up a systematic process of verification of “doubtous” burrows (deep observation, laying of traps with hair, fingerprints or photographic). Previously, all dubious burrows were excluded from the database without further verification.
