Avian and Mammalian Diversity and Abundance in Jhalana Reserve Forest, Jaipur, India.

We utilized camera traps to evaluate animal diversity, relative abundance, and the extent of anthropogenic activities in the Jhalana Reserve Forest (JRF), located in Jaipur, with a population of 3.9 million people. Between November 2017 and November 2019, camera traps were strategically deployed in the tourist zone and peripheral areas, capturing 16,328 photos.

Cub Survival in a Wild Leopard () Population.

We investigated the survival of cubs in a wild Indian leopard () population in the Jhalana Reserve Forest (JRF), India. The research focuses on analyzing the survival of leopard cubs during their first two years of life. Survival functions were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method based on data collected with trail cameras over four years from 2018 to 2021.

Magnetic alignment in free-ranging Indian Leopard (Panthera pardus fusca).

The earth's geomagnetic field (GMF) is known to influence the behaviour of a wide range of species, but remains one of the most enigmatic of animal senses. Animals are known to utilize the GMF for a wide range of survival capabilities such as navigation and orienteering, migration, territoriality, homing, etc. Despite a lot of study in this regard on vertebrates, little is known about the effects of GMF on felids.

A Camera-Trap Home-Range Analysis of the Indian Leopard () in Jaipur, India.

The suitability of the camera trap-retrap method was explored for identifying territories and studying the spatial distribution of leopards () in the Jhalana Reserve Forest, Jaipur, India. Data from two years (November 2017 to November 2019, N = 23,208 trap-hours) were used to provide estimates of minimum home-range size and overlap. We conducted home-range analysis and estimation, using the minimum convex polygon (MCP) method with geographic information system (GIS) tools.
