Spatially exlicit capture histories for small mammals and predators in a Tasmanian forest system

The following data represents three years of capture-recapure records from individually marked co-occurring small mammals and predators from four spatially independent sites situated in cool temperate forests in southern Tasmania, Australia. Data for small mammals was collected for the swamp rat, Rattus lutreolus, and long-tailed mouse, Pseudomys higginsi, using Elliott small mammal live capture and release traps. Data for predators was collected for the Tasmanian devil, Sarcophilus harrisii, and feral cat, Felis catus, using remote cameras.

Methods
The data set was collected using Elliott small mammal live capture and release traps for small mammals, and remote cameras for predators. Sixty Elliott traps and up-to 18 remote cameras were set at each of four sites two times per year for three years. The attached data is formatted for spatially explicit capture recapture analysis and as such contains capture histories for each species and survey and related trap locational files for each site. More detailed information in relation to survey methods can be found in Lazenby et al. (2021).
