Wildlife in Cumbria

CBDC provides data on a wide variety of species from all over Cumbria. The page below contains a small sample of our data, available for free to the public via PDFs, articles, interactive maps and more.

It is also the place where we post Annual Wildlife Reports from Cumbrian Recording Groups and full versions of articles sent to Birds and Wildlife in Cumbria.

If you're looking for something specific, please don't hesitate to contact us; our data is available for free to the general public, recorders, and students. For more information, see our Data Services section or get in touch.
