Camera Traps[edit]

Camera traps are programmed to record a rapid sequence of images when the motion sensor is triggered; an infrared flash enables night photography without disturbing wildlife. Between 40% and 90% of images result from false activation of the motion sensor, for example due to movement of wind, people or vehicles[1].

Camera traps are widely used by ecologists to study the behavior, spatial distribution and characteristics of animal species in the wild[2].
