Determining the efficacy of camera traps, live capture traps, and detection dogs for locating cryptic small mammal species

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Metal box (e.g., Elliott, Sherman) traps and remote cameras are two of the most commonly employed methods presently used to survey terrestrial mammals. However, their relative efficacy at accurately detecting cryptic small mammals has not been adequately

Testing the consistency of wildlife data types before combining them: the case of camera traps and telemetry. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Wildlife data gathered by different monitoring techniques are often combined to estimate animal density. However, methods to check whether different types of data provide consistent information (i.e., can information from one data type be used to predict

Mammal population density estimation using camera traps based on a random encounter model: theoretical basis and practical recommendations

open access: yesNature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука, 2023
Estimating the population density of mammals has long been one of the problematic tasks of both fundamental population ecology and practical programmes for their conservation and management. The majority of methods for population density estimation using

Can camera traps monitor Komodo dragons a large ectothermic predator? [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Camera trapping has greatly enhanced population monitoring of often cryptic and low abundance apex carnivores. Effectiveness of passive infrared camera trapping, and ultimately population monitoring, relies on temperature mediated differences between the

Lifeplan Camera Trapping Protocol v3

open access: yes, 2023
Lifeplan is a global biodiversity monitoring project with the aim of assessing the current state of biodiversity worldwide, and using this knowledge to generate predictions of how biodiversity might look in the future. In this protocol we describe the method used within the Lifeplan project for collecting camera trap data on an international scale in

Pursuing packrats: An evaluation of noninvasive detection methods for Neotoma

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, 2018
Woodrats (Neotoma spp.) are imperiled in large swathes of the United States. Their populations have previously been monitored mainly through live‐trapping and sign surveys.
