Paw Prints to DNA – Non-invasive polar bear monitoring in using eDNA derived from snow tracks in Svalbard
Effective conservation and management of polar bears depend on robust knowledge of their ecology, behaviour, population size and structure, connectivity, and adaptive capacity. Although genetic tools are critical for addressing these questions, traditional sampling approaches, often involving capture and handling, are logistically challenging, costly, potentially hazardous to personnel, and can cause stress to animals
