Identifying Cryptic Mammals With Non‐Invasive Methods: An Effective Molecular Species Identification Tool to Survey Southern African Terrestrial Carnivores
ABSTRACT Carnivores play a vital role in ecosystem health and are thus an important focus for conservation management. Non‐invasive methods have gained traction for carnivore monitoring as carnivores are often elusive and wide‐ranging, making visual counts particularly difficult. Faecal mini‐barcodi...
