Camera-trapping survey of mammals in and around Imbak Canyon Conservation Area in Sabah, Malaysian Borneo. Raffles Bulletin of Zoology 61(2):861-870 [ER 1775]

Habitat: tropical/subtropical moist broadleaf forest

Substrate: ground surface

Disturbance: selective logging

MAT: 27.0

MAP: 2890.0

Habitat comments: "mostly lowland dipterocarp rainforest and upper montane forest, including patches of montane heath or 'Kerangas' forest... Being logged in the past and located in proximity to some human settlements and plantations, the forest habitats surrounding the fringes of the ICCA are generally heavily disturbed. However, forests inside the canyon of the ICCA are still relatively pristine"

Sampling comments: "We deployed eighty automatic remote motion-triggered digital camera traps of three commercial brands (Bushnell, Trophy Cam TM [30 units], Reconyx, RM45 [30 units], and Cuddeback, Capture [20 units]) in 13 circular plots, each of which was prescribed by a 3.5 km radius. Since areas outside of the ICCA covered a larger area, 10 plots (P3–P11 & P13) were located in the surrounding areas outside of the ICCA, while three plots (P1, P2 & P12) were located inside the core area of the ICCA... Distances between nearest plots ranged from 0 to 5 km... Five camera stations were established in each of plots P3–P11 and P13 (total: 50 camera stations), and 10 camera stations each were established in plots P1, P2 and P12 (total: 30 camera stations)... one camera trap was placed at each camera station... cameras were active 24 hours per day"
