Camera trap survey of jaguars from Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary in Belize

These data are from a camera trap survey of jaguars in Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary in Belize that ran for a 6 month period from August 2013 until February 2014. The associated manuscript contains analyses of these data using continuous-time spatial capture-recapture models, and demonstrates how one can make inference about animal activity patterns. The data include 287 detections of 19 individual male jaguars, and 44 detections of 8 individual female jaguars.

Methods
Twenty paired camera stations (Pantheracam v3) were deployed along the trail network within the eastern basin of Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary in Belize. Neighbouring stations had an average spacing of 2.0 km (1.1 to 3.1 km) and digital photographic data were downloaded every two weeks. The data were collected by R. Foster and B. Harmsen.
