Sampling comments: "A camera trapping survey was conducted at four selected natural wet licks in SLFR from July until November in 2019 (5 months)"
"Four passive infra-red camera traps (HC-800M, HongKong Suntek International Co. Ltd.) were deployed ... each camera trap was set-up at 0.5 m height on a tree and faced towards the natural spring (5 to 10 m away)"
"All camera traps remained active 24 hours a day"
"A 30-minute time gap was applied to distinguish between two independent detections of a mammal species at a particular lick and time"
