Road mortality locations of small and medium-sized mammals along a partly-fenced highway in Quebec, Canada, 2012–2015
The data presented here consist of the locations of 839 roadkill points from four years (2012–2015) of roadkill surveys for small and medium-sized mammals (under 30 kg) from a four-lane highway in Quebec (Highway 175) during the months of May to October. Seventeen species or species groups were iden...
