A new study, published by Springer Nature was conducted on the population ecology of five species of threatened ungulates: Gaur, Sambar, Chital, Muntjac and Wild Pig in the -Nagarahole- Bandipur protected landscape by Centre for Wildlife Studies scientists and collaborators
According to the press release, the detailed study, titled ‘Spatial Dynamics and Ecology of Large Ungulate Populations in Tropical Forests of India’ includes key data based on the research. The study involved the conduct of line-transect surveys on foot, designed and implemented advanced distance sampling methods.
