Small Mammals from Lanjak Entimau Wildlife Sanctuary "hidden Jewel of Sarawak"

A survey was conducted at Lanjak Entimau Wildlife Sanctuary (LEWS) from 13th to 26th June 2008 to document as well as to determine the species richness and relative abundance of small mammals. In average, 10 mist nets, six four-bank harp traps, 10 pit fall traps and 100 cage traps were deployed....

In average, 10 mist nets, six four-bank harp traps, 10 pit fall traps and 100 cage traps were deployed. Sampling was conducted at two different sites within the sanctuary: Sungai Bloh (Bloh) and Sungai Menyarin (Menyarin) trail.
