Marc Kery M. Trolle 2005 <p><span>Reliable information on abundance of the ocelot (</span><i>Leopardus pardalis</i><span>) is scarce. We conducted the first camera-trap study in the northern part of the Pantanal wetlands of Brazil, one of the wildlife hotspots of South America. Using capture-recapture analysis, we estimated a density of 0.112 independent individuals per km</span>²<span>&nbsp;(SE 0.069). We list other mammals recorded with camera traps and show that camera-trap placement on roads or on trails has striking effects on camera-trapping rates.</span></p> application/pdf 10.1515/mamm.2005.032 en Walter de Gruyter Camera-trap study of ocelot and other secretive mammals in the northern Pantanal article
