Welcome to Make the Adder Count 2024. Started in 2005, this long-running survey aims to encourage springtime counts of adders, with the objectives of informing local conservation projects/interests and gathering a long-term surveillance dataset.
Make the Adder Count encourages experienced observers to gather data in a standardised way (by making at least three and, ideally, five or six counts of adult snakes basking after emergence from hibernation) so that information may be pooled to build a picture of trends in adder populations nationally.
The project is being co-ordinated by ARGUK. To take part please contact Angela Julian at: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
