[Description of methods used for collection/generation of data] European rabbits and red-legged partridge perpendicular distances from the transect line were performed along transects in vehicle at 10-15 km/h starting one hour before sunrise for rabbits and one hour after sunrise for partridges.
Egyptian mongooses were captured with box-traps baited with dead chicken. Adult and subadult mongooses were tagged with VHF-GPS radio-collars, from which telemetry data were obtained. Between 42 and 45 camera-traps, baited with lynx urine and valerian extract, were deployed in each study area in a regular shaped grid with an average distance of 400 m between cameras.
Mongoose sctas were collected along transects on foot in each study area., Dataset for the paper "Descalzo, E; Jiménez, J.; Villafuerte, R.; Delibes-Mateos, M.; Díaz-Ruiz, F.; Ferreras, P. 2024.
