This database comes from an educational experience in different schools in the province of Cordoba, Spain, where during 2024 camera-trapping and citizen science were implemented to analyse the distribution and diversity of wild mammals in the surroundings of the schools. The main objective of these projects was to enhance the scientific, participatory and social dimensions by stimulating the interest of the school community in science, technology and nature conservation. During the development of the projects, pupils were encouraged to participate in the design of hypotheses, observation, data collection, processing, analysis and dissemination of data. One of the essential activities consisted in the placement of camera-trapping cameras by the students, in order to improve the students' knowledge of the mammal species in their environment. The records obtained were annotated using the citizen science platform MammalWeb.

The data sets provide long-term information of the only-presence of eight wild ungulates and red fox derived from harvest data from Spain in a 5 x 5 squared grid (21,836 cells) of the European Environment Agency. The collected data has been processed and reported yearly, in accordance with Habitats Directive from the European Union to facilitate data reporting about the State of nature. Data sets are structured following the Darwin Core biological standard. The information will be updated periodically to cover missing data. Dataset is under external review an will be released as soon as possible.
