How do we
know that?

Different questions need different evidence. Every method has a useful reach—and a limit.

Camera traps · Who passes here?

A detection establishes presence at a place and time. Counting animals requires additional design and analysis.

Genetics · How are populations related?

Genetic evidence can test relationships that appearance alone cannot establish.

Tracking · Where does an animal move?

Tracking follows particular animals. Their movements do not automatically represent every individual.

Field monitoring · What changes?

Repeated records become more informative when location, method and survey effort remain interpretable.
