Camera-trapping estimates of the relative population density of Sympetrum dragonflies: application to multihabitat users in agricultural landscapes [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Although camera trapping has been effectively used for wildlife monitoring, its application to multihabitat insects (i.e., insects requiring terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems) is limited.

How long is enough to detect terrestrial animals? Estimating the minimum trapping effort on camera traps [PDF]
PeerJ, 2014 Camera traps is an important wildlife inventory tool for estimating species diversity at a site. Knowing what minimum trapping effort is needed to detect target species is also important to designing efficient studies, considering both the number of ...

A baited-camera trapping method for estimating the size and sex structure of African leopard (Panthera pardus) populations [PDF]
MethodsX, 2020 Amongst Africa's large predators, leopards (Panthera pardus) are arguably the most elusive carnivore. Information on the species is lacking in most areas where they are found.

Trapping Elusive Cats: Using Intensive Camera Trapping to Estimate the Density of a Rare African Felid. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Camera trapping studies have become increasingly popular to produce population estimates of individually recognisable mammals. Yet, monitoring techniques for rare species which occur at extremely low densities are lacking.

Non-volant mammal inventory of western Mongolian-Manchurian Grassland Ecoregion: a biogeographic crossroad worth preserving [PDF]
Check List, 2020 The extensive Mongolian grasslands hosts a high variety of micro-habitats which wildlife uses as corridors that enable species to expand their range. Between May 2017 and March 2018, we conducted an intensive survey in the Mongolian-Manchurian Grassland ...

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