- Purpose
- The aims of the project were: [1] to investigate the distribution of small ground-dwelling mammals at Karawatha; [2] study the relationship between small ground-dwelling mammals and habitat features at the micro and macro scales; [3] determine the influence of trapping technique on the composition of captured mammals.

- Statement
- Small Mammal Survey: Sampling of small mammals were conducted using Elliot traps, Pitfall traps and Hair funnels. Sampling occurred on 33 PPBio (Program for Planned Biodiversity and Ecosystem Research) plots (250 m long) between June and August 2010. Each plot was sampled for four nights, with three to four plots being surveyed simultaneously. Twenty-five Elliot traps, three pitfall traps and six hair funnels were used per plot. Elliot traps were placed 11 m perpendicular to the midline on each side and at 20 m intervals, starting at 20 m along the transect. A final Elliot trap was placed on the line at the 250 m mark. Elliot traps were baited with balls that consisted of a mixture of honey, peanut butter and rolled oats. One pitfall traps were placed 5 m from the midline at the 125 m mark on the left hand side. The pitfall traps consisted of a 20 L bucket and 10 m of drift fence. The hair funnel traps were placed every 35 m along the transect on alternate sides and 6 m from the midline.<br></br>
