Sampling comments: "DeerCam cameras" were used from "March to July 2005"; "The study area was divided into 1 km2 blocks with two cameras placed in each block; a minimum distance of 200 m was set between each camera location... The Deercams were checked (batteries and films) and the lure was replenished after 14 days (two weeks) and removed on the fourth week, for an interval of approximately 30 days... Eight scent lures... and two food lures" were used
the 1 km2 sampling blocks were T1A, T1C, T2B, and Tubau, so there were eight cameras and the sampled area was 4 km2
