Sampling comments: "Our field surveys were conducted from March 2008 through September 2011, during which a total of 395 trip camera stations (TCB-100, Huangwu Inc., Wuhan, China; PC 600, Reconyx, Wisconsin, USA) were deployed in Qinling"
"Cameras were located at least 500 m away from each other ... and at most 1000 m away from each other"
"At the end of each survey period (mean length = 30 days), field staff collected memory cards and moved the cameras to the next site"
"A total survey effort of 15,290 camera days was achieved"
The study "focused on five most abundant mammalian species"
