Camera-trap survey to detect free-ranging domestic cats and other mammals in Sierra de Aracena and Picos de Aroche Natural Park

The current data set provides all mammals, but more specifically free-ranging domestic cats, recorded during two camera-trap surveys performed using the same methodology in Sierra de Aracena and Picos de Aroche Natural Park (Southwestern Iberian peninsula). The first survey, comprised between 2018 and 2020, was carried out for the study described in Sanglas & Palomares 2022 and included the deployment of 44 camera-traps. The second survey was carried out between May and July 2023 within the subproject "Feral Cats" of the SUMHAL macroproject, in order to estimate the number of domestic cats ranging within a natural park with a certain degree of anthropisation. For that, 28 camera-traps were deployed across rural and natural habitats of the park.
