Forest carnivore inventory within Olympic National Park, 2001-2003. Remotely triggered camera traps were used to inventory forest carnivores throughout forested habitat in Olympic National Park during the winters of 2001-2002 and 2002-2003. We sampled in 13 four square mile blocks each year, for a total of 26 bocks sampled over the 2 winters of the study. We obtained over 1270 animal pictures, and detected 21 different species, 7 of which were forest carnivores (ermine, long-tailed weasel, spotted skunk, bobcat, mountain lion, coyote, and black bear).
