要旨/Abstract
In this study, we used our Wakayama University campus site as a case study area, and investigated spatiotemporal mammal appearance patterns using multiple motion sensor cameras. We were able to observe unique behaviors including climbing up of the artificial fences of the invasive raccoon (Procyon lotor), the masked palm civet (Paguma larvata), and the Japanese weasel (Mustela itatsi) as well as destroying it by the wild boar (Sus scrofa), showing seemingly insufficient barrier effects of manmade infrastructures in the campus site. Moreover, we could estimate that their moving ranges were along forest corridors based on analysis of time difference of mammal appearances among multiple cameras, even though we were not able to distinguish individuals which should be focused on our continuous investigations ahead.
