populations in the wild is difficult or impossible, primarily
because of limited data. However, there is an urgent need to
develop methods for estimating population sizes and improving
the viability of target species. Aims. To define suitable
habitat for sambar (Cervus unicolor), banteng (Bos javanicus),
gaur (Bos gaurus), Asian elephant (Elephas maximus) and tiger
(Panthera tigris) in the Western Forest Complex, Thailand, and
to assess their current status as well as estimate how the
landscape needs to be managed to maintain viable populations.
Methods. The present paper dem
