Sampling comments: "We deployed 17 Hyperfire 900 camera units (Reconyx Inc., Holmen, Wisconsin, USA) from December 2011 to June 2013 in a stratified-random design. We stratified habitats into four dominant types: deciduous forest (n = 6 camera units), grassland (n = 3 camera units), cropland (n = 3 camera units), and wetland (n = 5 camera units)... We considered all photo series that were uninterrupted for up to 5 min as single events"
