Development of a monitoring system for chamois in national park Hohe Tauern Salzburg
Abstract
Reliable methods to estimate the size of a population are fundamental in wildlife management and conservation. This pilot study aims to delevop and test new approaches to estimate the population size of chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra) in national park Hohe Tauern Salzburg. The long-term objective is a reliable monitoring system enabeling to study the development of this population as well as changes in their temporal-spatial behaviour (f.e. to climate change).
