Effort is only an approximation in most cases as very few studies stated effective camera trap nights 3 cords for other small carnivores (excluding small cats) that were recorded using camera traps and does not include any direct observations. 4 Large parts of Nam Giang Main and Phuoc Son West FMUs are covered by Song Thanh NR
