abstract

In 2014 several educational and scientific events dedicated to the Badger Year in Ukraine were held. Environmental educational activities aimed to increase awareness about ecological conditions, understanding of biology and importance of European badger’s conservation. Research concerns the structure of certain species populations, environmental factors influence and monitoring organization. Involvement of conservation institutions and environmental organizations to events devoted to years of mammals in Ukraine will attract more attention to the problems of biodiversity conservation.
