Small Carnivore Research and Parasite Study (SCRAPS)

About

The Small Carnivore Research and Parasite Study (SCRAPS) is a multi-disciplinary investigation into how anthropogenic disturbance along Kenya’s human-wildlife-livestock interface influences the behavior, immunity, and parasite dynamics of a guild of small carnivores inhabiting Laikipia County, Kenya. Our research team is composed of a diverse group of individuals including Kenyan, US, and UK scientists from a variety of backgrounds. This website, and blog, were created to help spread the word not only about the SCRAPS project but also about the importance of small carnivores in ecosystem functionality. We hope you enjoy and welcome any comments and questions!!
