Abstract

Here we analyze the data of the 12-years monitoring of small mammals with the help of capture-mark-recapture using special live-trapping protocol, snap-trapping, and pitfall trapping. Small mammals of 18 species were found. The species composition obtained with snap-traps and in pitfalls is different. The best coincidence was found for the data obtained in live-traps and the data obtained under snap-trapping and pitfall trapping when the latter data were referred to the unit of distance.
