Optimising monitoring efforts for secretive snakes: a comparison of occupancy and N-mixture models for assessment of population status

A fifth of reptiles are Data Deficient; many due to unknown population status. Monitoring snake populations can be demanding due to crypsis and low population densities, with insufficient recaptures for abundance estimation via Capture-Mark-Recapture. Alternatively, binomial N-mixture models enable...
