What am I looking at?

The explorer follows capture and recapture records from sampled plots and trapping nights. Those records show observed return visits and sampled community patterns; they do not by themselves measure total population size, complete animal movement, landscape-wide abundance, or what caused a change. The tagline is an ecological invitation; these records do not measure landscape effects or ecosystem engineering.
