Different sources state that outcome monitoring is very important. Tracking tunnels, trail cameras, sniffer dogs and community sightings are always referred to as means of doing this in order to know you are becoming, or have become predator free. Our group has strong support for making and monitoring an ever increasing number of traps in our area and is helping expand backyard trapping to other suburbs nearby. We have carried out one 5 minute bird count at various locations so far.
What is needed is a practical guide of the steps involved to start, continue using and recording the results of the a.m. methods to get to predator free status. Having access to the process other groups are following and their experiences could help us avoid mistakes and give us the confidence of action.
Where can written documentation of how to proceed with outcome monitoring be found please?
