Deer Behavior Affects Density Estimates With Camera Traps, but Is Outweighed by Spatial Variability

Deer Behavior Affects Density Estimates With Camera Traps, but Is Outweighed by Spatial Variability

Density is a key trait of populations and an essential parameter in ecological research, wildlife conservation and management. Several models have been developed to estimate population density based on camera trapping data, including the random encounter model (REM) and camera trap distance sampling...
