Methods for assessing small-scale variation in the abundance of a generalist mesopredator.
Estimating animal abundance is essential for research, management and conservation purposes. Although reliable methods exist to estimate absolute density for populations with individually marked animals, robust relative abundance indices (RAIs) may allow to track changes in population size when indi...
