The Canary Islands are an important tourist destination due to their unique climate and rich scenery and biodiversity. During the last few decades, there has been significant development of urban areas and busy road networks. However, there have been no studies describing the effects of road mortality on wildlife in this archipelago. Here, the temporal and spatial patterns of wildlife roadkill in Lanzarote (UNESCO Biosphere Reserve) is described using counts from cars for an entire annual cycle.
