N2 - There is limited information on the frequency of non-targetcaptures during grey squirrel control operations in Europe.We present data from four control programmes andhighlight the need for greater assessment of the negativeimpacts on a range of avian and mammalian species. Therisk of inter-specific infection is investigated andopportunities to minimise non-target capture in both live-capture trap and kill-trap designs are explored.
