Comparing morphological and molecular diet analyses and fecal DNA sampling protocols for a terrestrial carnivore
ABSTRACT Analyzing predator scats for the presence of prey is a common noninvasive approach to understanding trophic interactions. Morphological analysis of prey remains has been the prevailing method of diet analysis, but molecular methods are becoming more widely used. Previous analyses suggest mo...
