Camera type: analog

Cameras paired: no

Trap spacing: 0.4

Sampling comments: "Colour print film (ISO 400) was used in each camera... Cameras were deployed at 15 locations in three different forest types... In each forest type, cameras were deployed 300–500 m apart along an existing trail: primary forest... logged forest... and hill forest... In the primary and logged forests, the same camera locations were maintained for 36 months (Oct.2004 to Oct.2007), whereas those in the hill forest were maintained for 18 months (May 2006 to Sep.2007)... The total number of camera-days was 11,106 over 36 months (4,428 camera-days in the primary forest, 3,965 in the logged forest, 1,891 in the hill forest, 613 along animal trails, and 389 around fruiting trees)"
