This is the first dataset that provides a complete compilation of mammal records based on camera traps, human observations, and specimens deposited in biological collections in Colombia. We compiled ...a dataset with unpublished information, including 97,944 records corresponding to 136 species, of which 38 are endemic, 92 are identified as species subject to use by humans in the literature, and 33 are categorized either as Data Deficient or threatened according to international or unofficial national assessments. The information comes from 31 out of 32 departments of Colombia and constitutes relevant input for future distribution and conservation assessments. Most records (n=96,417, 98.44%) come from non-invasive sampling methods such as camera traps. However, we highlight the contribution of museum specimens (n= 1,333), especially for small and medium-sized species, many of them with restricted distributions in the country. This dataset constitutes a joint collaborative and interinstitutional effort that serves as the basis for cooperative work to comprehensively assess the current conservation status of all mammal species in Colombia.

A partir del 21 de noviembre 2019 (#21N) en Colombia se ha abierto un ciclo de movilizaciones y protestas sin precedentes en la historia del país. En las múltiples instancias de discusión y ...asambleas, uno de los llamados de movimientos y organizaciones ha sido dirigido hacia la Academia para que aporte con análisis y propuestas. Desde la Dirección del CID se ha considerado importante involucrar docentes e investigadores para que respondan a ese llamado. Este documento es el resultado de este esfuerzo. Como siempre, los autores tenían completa libertad de enfoque y posición teórica.
