| Method to standardize the procedure for measuring mountain lion tracks | |
| 1989 Conference Proceeding | |
A technique was developed that could establish a standard procedure for use in mountain lion track studies. This technique relies on factors that do not change, or change very little, in different soil or substrates. This method had been applied on a number of study areas in California. It had minimized the errors made in past measuring attempts. This technique is useful for documenting lion densities and when used in conjunction with more labor and cost intensive methods of population surveys, can identify individual animals that might otherwise be unaccounted for in a given population. |
