A comparison of density estimation methods for monitoring marked and unmarked animal populations

A comparison of density estimation methods for monitoring marked and unmarked animal populations

Abstract 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 international legislation. Carnivores...
