Estimating population size of endangered brush-tailed rock-wallaby (Petrogale penicillata) colonies using faecal DNA.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jan 2006

Abstract excerpt

The brush-tailed rock-wallaby (Petrogale penicillata) is an endangered species in southeastern Australia and many of the remaining populations are declining. The steep rocky habitat and shy nature of the species make it difficult to obtain data on population parameters such as abundance and recruitment. Faecal pellet counts from scat plots are commonly used to monitor population trends but these are imprecise and...
