NONINVASIVE GENETIC SAMPLING TOOLS FOR WILDLIFE BIOLOGISTS: A REVIEW OF APPLICATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR ACCURATE DATA COLLECTION (2005, methodology): “This test was first applied in brown bears (Taberlet et al. 1993) and has also been used in seals (Reed et al. 1997), otters (Dallas et al. 2000), cougars (Ernest et al. 2000), elephants (Eggert et al. 2003), and wolves (Lucchini et al. 2002).”
An evaluation of field and noninvasive genetic methods for estimating Eurasian otter population size (2009, methodology): “In addition, the Lut-SRY marker ( Dallas et al. 2000 ) was used for sex identification.”
Faecal DNA typing to determine the abundance and spatial organisation of otters (Lutra lutra) along two stream systems in Kinmen (2004, methodology): “…Ursus arctos (Höss et al., 1992; Kohn et al., 1995), mountain lions, Puma concolor (Ernest et al., 2000), coyotes, Canis latrans (Kohn et al., 1999), Eurasian otters (Dallas et al., 2000), wolves, Canis lupus (Lucchini et al., 2002) and Iberian lynxes, Lynx pardinus (Palomares et al., 2002).”
The impact of time and field conditions on brown bear (Ursus arctos) faecal DNA amplification (2007, background): “Similarly low success rates have been observed with faeces collected from aquatic species (Reed et al. 1997; Dallas et al. 2000).”
