The articles also highlight the need for us to collect more data on reptiles. Without data, we are unable to validate anecdotal evidence of reptile population declines across the UK. Data helps us to direct our conservation efforts in the most appropriate and impactful way. Please use our Dragon Finder App and upload all your sightings! We share our data with the National Biodiversity Network (NBN) database which helps to inform the work of other organisations too. More data also helps us and others to oppose development proposals that will impact negatively on reptile habitats.
