A comparison of the effectiveness of camera trapping and live trapping for sampling terrestrial small-mammal communities
TL;DR: Camera-trapping surveys of small terrestrial mammals may provide a new and cost-effective technique for surveying terrestrial small mammals, particularly the case when presence data are the main requirement of the survey, with no requirement to capture and tag animals.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This paper used a 7-year dataset of mammals collected during and after south-east Australia's Millennium Drought to assess the roles of fire history, climatic extremes and their interactions in shaping mammal distributions.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors discuss the importance of the threatened species recovery hub and its role in the successful recovery of threatened species from habitat degradation in the Australian National Environmental Science Program (NEP).

Journal ArticleDOI
Short-term impact of a mega-fire on small mammal communities during prolonged drought
TL;DR: In this paper, small mammals were surveyed to examine mega-fire impact using the post-2006 wildfire landscape of the Grampians National Park, Victoria, Australia, and a habitat vacancy model was introduced where small mammal recolonisation post-wildfire depends on a lack of isolation and connectivity of populations.
