Sumario:[EN] This dataset contains the underlying data for the scientific article "Cat colonies reshape the abundance and body size of lizards" published in Biology Letters (2026). It comprises three main components: 1) "Biometrics.csv" includes biometric measurements (snout-vent length, pileus length/width, body mass) of lizards (Gallotia galloti) captured using pitfall traps across control sites and areas adjacent to feral cat colonies on Tenerife Island, Canary Islands, Spain. 2) "DatosSI.xlsx" contains Carbon (Delta 13C) and Nitrogen (Delta 15N) stable isotope data from lizard droppings collected near and far from cat colonies, alongside dry cat food samples. 3) "Locations.csv" provides the geographic coordinates (latitude, longitude) of the traps and cat colonies monitored during the study.
