Abstract

Data on mammal species  were collected during wildlife census on foot during monitoring  linear transects. All the animal observation geographical points were recorded using GPS  by fauna guards and ecological staff. These data were directly registered on paper sheets on field and controlled by team leaders. A total number  of   1925 occurrence data on animal  species were collected during the annual census in 2001, 2004 and 2013  in the Biosphere Reserve of Pendjari
