Application of mark-recapture methods to lions: Satisfying assumptions by using covariates to explain heterogeneity

Accurate estimation of wildlife population size is central to effective management and conservation but is notoriously difficult for rare and cryptic carnivores. Mark-recapture methods can reliably estimate the abundance of large carnivores but are sensitive to departures from the assumption of equa...
