Photo-identification of individual snow leopards (Panthera uncia) is the primary data source
for density estimation via capture-recapture statistical methods. To identify individual snow …

Estimating abundance of wild animal populations is crucial for their management and
conservation. While spatial capture-recapture models are becoming increasingly common to …

Identification of individual animals in the field goes back to the 1930s and early studies of
animal behaviour (Lorenz 1935, 1937). In the 1960s, it has been greatly popularised by the …

This study presents the first movement analysis of snow leopards (Panthera uncia) using
satellite telemetry data, focusing on the northeastern Himalayas of Nepal. By examining …

Abstract Knowledge of large carnivore population abundance is essential for wildlife
management and conservation, but these data are often difficult to obtain in inherently low …

Many carnivores rely on marking behavior for intraspecific communication with potential
mates and competitors, using scent and visual markings to advertise their use of a territory …

Camera traps are non-invasive monitoring tools largely used to detect species presence or
population dynamics. The use of camera traps for wildlife conservation purposes raises …
