These quantities, however, are difficult to obtain for rare and elusive species, where even intensive sampling effort can yield sparse data. Here, we combine data from camera-trapping and noninvasive genetic sampling (scat surveys) of a jaguar population in the Caatinga of northeastern Brazil, where the species is threatened and little studied. We analyze data of both survey types separately and jointly in the framework of spatial capture–recapture. Density estimates were 1.45 (±0.46) for the camera-trap data alone, 2.03 (±0.77) for the genetic data alone, and 1.57 (±0.43) and 2.45 (±0.70) for the two methods, respectively, in the joint analysis. Density and other parameters were estimated more precisely in the joint model. Particularly the differences in movement between males and females were estimated much more precisely when combining both data sources, especially compared to the genetic data set alone. When compared to a previous non-spatial capture–recapture approach, present density estimates were more precise, demonstrating the superior statistical performance of spatial over non-spatial capture recapture models. The ability to combine different surveys into a single analysis with shared parameter allows for more precise population estimates, while at the same time enabling researchers to employ complementary survey techniques in the study of little known species | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.biocon.2013.08.003 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/82726 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.biocon.2013.08.003 |
