Camera‐trap data do not indicate scaling of diel activity and cathemerality with body mass in an East African mammal assemblage

Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Diel activity patterns of animal species reflect constraints imposed by morphological, physiological, and behavioral trade‐offs, but these trade‐offs are rarely quantified for multispecies assemblages. Based on a systematic year‐long camera‐trap study in
