Yep I agree, SCR certainly not easy, but the statistical foundations are solid, and it’s easier than the ‘unmarked’ route (REM/REST etc.)! There’s no reason why it shouldn’t be being applied across lynx populations in Europe in a standardised way. Interesting study, too, thanks for sharing!

We just did population estimating in my 9th grade environmental science class (using beans) - This timing is perfect!

Lynx (including Eurasian) are actually one of the “easier” ones, since you can identify individuals (unlike for, say, deer). Done with good survey design (and that doesn’t mean throwing a few cameras up and hoping for the best 🤓) and analysis, you can get an accurate & precise population estimate.
