Effects of trapping effort and trap placement on estimating abundance of Humboldt’s flying squirrels [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Live trapping is a common tool used to assess demography of small mammals. However, live-trapping is often expensive and stressful to captured individuals.

A comparison of density estimation methods for monitoring marked and unmarked animal populations
Ecosphere, 2022 Effective monitoring of wildlife populations forms the foundation of modern‐day conservation biology. Without reliable estimates of population size, it is not possible to determine population trends, a key requirement in determining species status under ...

Eliciting a predatory response in the eastern corn snake (Pantherophis guttatus) using live and inanimate sensory stimuli: implications for managing invasive populations [PDF]
, 2014 North America's Eastern corn snake (Pantherophis guttatus) has been introduced to several islands throughout the Caribbean and Australasia where it poses a significant threat to native wildlife. Invasive snake control programs often involve trapping with

Beauty is Attractive: Moduli Trapping at Enhanced Symmetry Points [PDF]
, 2004 We study quantum effects on moduli dynamics arising from the production of particles which are light at special points in moduli space. The resulting forces trap the moduli at these points, which often exhibit enhanced symmetry. Moduli trapping occurs in

Translocation of Swamp Rabbits in Southern Illinois [PDF]
, 2007 Habitat of Sylvilagus aquaticus (swamp rabbits) in Illinois has been reduced and fragmented due to human land use. Translocation may enable swamp rabbits to colonize isolated habitat patches.

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2011 Despite the great diversity of Brazilian Atlantic forest small mammals, natural history of most species is unknown due to their cryptic and nocturnal habits, but also due to the inadequacy of methods to capture some species, especially those of arboreal ...
