Can Distance Sampling and Dung Plots Be Used to Assess the Density of Mountain Hares Lepus timidus?

We evaluated distance sampling and dung plots as cost-effective methods of estimating the density of mountain hares Lepus timidus on moorland in the Scottish Highlands. We compared density estimates derived from these techniques to those derived from labour-intensive capture-recapture techniques. Di...
