Fawn Counts and Adult Female Site Use Are Mismatched Indicators of Habitat Quality in an Endangered Deer

DIVERSITY-BASEL, 13(2).

By: J. Jacobs n, M. Lashley* & M. Cove n

author keywords: camera traps; Florida Keys; hierarchical model; N-mixture model; sea-level rise
TL;DR: It is indicated that fawn abundance was negatively associated with increasing elevation and human trails, contrary to models based on adult female observations alone, and the lowest elevations where fawns were most abundant were associated with dense wetland plant communities, which warrant further investigation given that those areas are most vulnerable to sea-level rise.

author keywords: Community ecology; Forest fragmentation; Nest predation; Predator-prey; Strong interactions; Understory birds
TL;DR: It is suggested that concentrated foraging is the underlying mechanism behind the community interactions that community members exist in concentrated use areas within forest fragments, which results in heightened predator foraging rates and thus stronger interactions in fragments despite more predators encountering the nests in core forest.

author keywords: Camera trap; Felis; Neotoma; Nest supplementation; Multistate occupancy; Python; Woodrat

Assessing species traits and landscape relationships of the mammalian carnivore community in a neotropical biological corridor

BIODIVERSITY AND CONSERVATION, 25(4), 739–752.

By: L. Vargas*, M. Cove n, R. Manuel Spinola*, J. Cruz* & J. Saenz*

author keywords: Biological corridor; Camera traps; Carnivores; Occupancy models; Omnivores; Mesopredators
TL;DR: A camera trap survey at 38 sites across the San Juan–La Selva Biological Corridor in Costa Rica to assess occupancy and detection probabilities of the carnivore community revealed a negative relationship between omnivorous mesopredators and increasing forest and tree plantation cover, suggesting omnivores utilize forest fragments and edge habitats in agricultural landscapes.

Do coyotes Canis latrans influence occupancy of prey in suburban forest fragments?

CURRENT ZOOLOGY, 62(1), 1–6.

By: B. Jones*, M. Cove n, M. Lashley n & V. Jackson*

author keywords: camera traps; coyote; deer; rabbit; squirrel; urban wildlife
TL;DR: Coyotes play an important role in regulating the herbivorous mammals and hence may provide similar ecological benefits in urban/suburban forest fragments through trophic cascades, since hunting may not be allowed in urban and suburban habitats. (via Semantic Scholar)

author keywords: Baird's tapir; camera traps; Costa Rica; flagship species; occupancy model; probability of occurrence; San Juan-La Selva Biological Corridor; Tapirus bairdii
TL;DR: It is recommended that Baird's tapir could be used as a flagship species for the San Juan–La Selva Biological Corridor, to raise local awareness about conservation and increase economic growth from ecotourism. (via Semantic Scholar)

Integrating occupancy modeling and camera-trap data to estimate medium and large mammal detection and richness in a Central American biological corridor

TROPICAL CONSERVATION SCIENCE, 6(6), 781–795.

author keywords: camera-traps; corridor; Costa Rica; detection probability; mammal community; occupancy modeling; San Juan-La Selva Biological Corridor; species richness
TL;DR: Occupancy modeling has only recently been applied to camera-trap data and the results suggest that this approach provides robust richness and detection probability estimates and should be further explored. (via Semantic Scholar)
