TL;DR: This study shows P. bivittatus eDNA can be isolated from water samples; thus, this method is a new and promising technique for the management of invasive reptiles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Indexing principles and a widely applicable paradigm for indexing animal populations
TL;DR: A paradigm is presented that promotes the characteristics that make indices most useful, and the formula for a general index to describe population levels is presented and its variance formula is derived.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Comparison of Plotless Density Estimators Using Monte Carlo Simulation
TL;DR: An extensive simulation study to compare the performance of a large group of plotless density estimators (PDEs) to obtain clarification of their relative performance in a diversity of sampling situations finds the angle-order estimator with measurements to the third- closest individual in each quadrant had the lowest relative root-mean-squared error (RRMSE).
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of Three Relative Abundance Indices for Assessing Dingo Populations
TL;DR: Three methods of assessing relative abundance of wild canids were evaluated on a population of dingoes, Canis lupus dingo (Corbett), on a cattle station in south-westem Queensland, with the activity index proving the most sensitive.
