Camera locations from three camera trap surveys conducted in 2013–2014 Kibale National Park and adjacent farmland.
Inset shows the location of the study area in western Uganda. The location of the Makerere University Biological Field Station (MUBFS) is indicated by the black arrow. (Protected Areas: UNEP-WCMC and IUCN (2018); Kibale boundary courtesy of Joel Hartter).

Independent captures (> 1 h elapsed since the last capture of the same species), capture rates (per 100 trap days), naïve detection, and naïve occupancy of selected carnivore and prey species detected at 5 organic rubbish pits at the Makerere University Biological Field Station and during three systematic camera trap surveys conducted in 2013–2014 in Kibale National Park, Uganda.
Fig 2.
Predicted detection probabilities with respect to time since attractant was refreshed.
Predictions are shown with 95% confidence intervals (grey bars) for four small carnivores and two duikers in Kibale National Park, Uganda, in 2013–2014. Only significant relationships are shown. Models for all species are available in S1 Fig.
Fig 3.
Predicted detection probabilities with respect to the time a camera remained active (incremental effort).
Predictions are shown with 95% confidence intervals (grey bars) for two small carnivores and two duikers in Kibale National Park, Uganda, in 2013–2014. Only statistically significant relationships are shown. Models for all species are available in S3 Fig.
Fig 4.
Increased detection probability following the replacement of attractant during three surveys in Kibale National Park, Uganda in 2013–2014.
Violin plots represent the distribution of random detection probabilities. Observed detection probabilities are indicated with red dots. Significantly high and low detection probabilities are indicated with a star (α = 0.05).
Fig 5.
Decreased detection probability following the replacement of attractant during three surveys in Kibale National Park, Uganda in 2013–2014.
Violin plots represent the distribution of random detection probabilities. Observed detection probabilities are indicated with red dots. Significantly high and low detection probabilities are indicated with a star (α = 0.05).
