Sampling Methods
Occurrences, reported here, were obtained by 2 methods: 1. Direct observation and counting of the Lagomorpha and Rodentia occurrences along casual routes during work trips within the territory of the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone by the members of scientific department of the Chornobyl Radiation and Ecological Biosphere Reserve. 2. Indirect observation and recording of the Lagomorpha and Rodentia occurrences. Data was gathered and recorded by camera traps installed by the members of the scientific department of the Chornobyl Radiation and Ecological Biosphere Reserve within the territory of the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone. Camera traps were set taking into account migration routes and active areas of the Artiodactyla and Perissodactyla. Therefore, Lagomorpha and Rodentia records gathering was not the main focus. Since 2020, camera traps have been installed according to the advices described in Wearn, Oliver & Glover-Kapfer, Paul. (2017). Camera-trapping for conservation: a guide to best-practices. 10.13140/RG.2.2.23409.17767. Observations were carried out in different seasons and weather conditions.
