Sampling comments: "we established five study sites located at least 1 km apart and at least 100 meters from the nearest forest edge... we placed camera-traps at... four [of these] sites in the control... Within each study site, we... installed two camera-traps on opposite sides of each track-plot (n = 4 / site). We used an equal mixture of MC2- GV, Stealth Cams, or TrailMaster 35-1 cameras at all locations. We positioned camera-traps facing one another"
