Journal ArticleDOI

Estimating animal density using camera traps without the need for individual recognition

TL;DR: A method that eliminates the requirement for individual recognition of animals by modelling the underlying process of contact between animals and cameras is developed, opening the possibility of reduced labour costs for estimating wildlife density and may make estimation possible where it has not been previously.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large mammal population declines in Africa’s protected areas

TL;DR: The results indicate that African PAs have generally failed to mitigate human-induced threats to African large mammal populations, but they also show some successes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Energetic constraints on the diet of terrestrial carnivores

TL;DR: It is shown, by reviewing the most common live prey in carnivore diets, that there is a striking transition from feeding on small prey to large prey (near predator mass), occurring at predator masses of 21.5–25 kg, and the predicted maximum mass that an invertebrate diet can sustain is predicted.
Journal ArticleDOI

A common rule for the scaling of carnivore density.

TL;DR: Using mass-specific equations of prey productivity, it is shown that carnivore number per unit prey productivity scales to carnivore mass near –0.75, and that the scaling rule can predict population density across more than three orders of magnitude.
