Wildlife management often hinges upon an accurate assessment of population density.
Although undeniably useful, many of the traditional approaches to density estimation such …

ABSTRACT Presence–absence (detection/non‐detection) data are routinely collected in
wildlife studies where identification of individuals is impossible or impractical and where the …

Statistical models for estimating absolute densities of field populations of animals have been
widely used over the last century in both scientific studies and wildlife management …

Estimating population abundances, densities, and interspecific interactions are common
goals in wildlife management. Camera traps have been used to estimate the abundance …

Estimates of population density are crucial for wild felid conservation and are commonly
conducted using camera trapping. Spatially explicit capture-recapture (SCR) survey designs …

Context Accurate density estimation is crucial for conservation and management of elusive
species. Camera-trapping may provide an efficient method for density estimation …

Much of contemporary ecological theory and conservation biology is concerned with
variation in species abundance or occurrence, or the dynamics of abundance and …

Conservation and management of animal populations require making decisions about what
actions to take to bring about desired consequences (Nichols 2014). Effective conservation …

Population density is a fundamental parameter needed to assess wildlife populations but is
difficult to obtain given species are often wide-ranging and elusive. Photographic capture …

Surveys using conservation detection dogs have grown increasingly popular as an efficient
means to gather monitoring data, particularly for elusive and low‐density species such as …
