Habitat comments: "Vegetation within the reserve predominantly consists of lowland dipterocarp forest (61%), hill dipterocarp forest (22.5%) and upper dipterocarp forest (9%) with minor components of secondary forest (1.1%) and cultivated/cleared land (0.6%)... Control plots were chosen based on local knowledge as being natural unmodified forest"

Methods
Life forms: carnivores, primates, rodents, ungulates, birds, lizards
Sites: 8
Sampling methods: no design, baited, automatic cameras
Sample size: 342 captures or sightings
Nets or traps: 24
Net or trap nights: 546
Camera type: digital
Cameras paired: no
Basal area status: not applicable
Sampling comments: eight "plots were surveyed over a two-month period using 24 HD Bushnell camera traps. Our aim was to obtain the equivalent of eight weeks of camera trapping per plot (56 days)... Fruit baits were deployed to increase capture rates"
"1024 camera trap nights" are reported for the two treatments combined; recorded figure is based on assuming equal effort across the 15 plots
site area is unclear because the sampling points are clustered within part of the reserve
