Answer

What can Mallorca airport authorities do to stop animals entering the runway?

The main steps are regular fence checks, better monitoring at weak points, and a clear response plan between airport security, Aena, and local animal control. Found animals also need a fast and safe way to be removed from the area so they do not return. Transparent communication with airlines and passengers helps reduce confusion when a disruption does happen.
