2002  Full Book

The immense effort necessary for radio-telemetry studies called for the development of a system for a long-term monitoring of the Swiss lynx population. Pictures taken by camera-traps installed at game-paths and forestry-roads may be effectively used to estimate population size in a mark-resight approach. This study, conducted in the Bernese Oberland, shows that it is possible to use camera-traps in a sight/resight approach to estimate the size of a lynx population in the Alps.
