Roadkill monitoring can provide important information about spatial and temporal trends on roadkill events. These studies are important for conservation, but there are few examples from Central America. Here, I identified in a road near a national park in Panama that monthly vertebrate roadkill events decreased with increases in temperature and precipitation. Abstract in Spanish is available with online material.
