We used occupancy modeling to compare the detection probabilities of white-headed woodpeckers using transect call-point versus ARU surveys.

A relatively novel Rocky Mountain elk population (Cervus canadensis nelsoni) on the Plumas National Forest (PNF) in northeastern California became established in the early 2000s, but there is...
