Red Squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) abundance and habitat preference survey data – Anglesey 2021/2022
Project undertaken to analyse the use of camera traps in determining population abundance of red squirrel in different habitat types on Anglesey. Two sites were used in this survey; Pentraeth and Newborough, The data contains trap locations identified by What3 words, and includes details of habitat types and numbers of squirrels caught.

We initially selected 50 sampling locations across the four stand type categories that would be as central to the coupe as possible (to be most representative of that stand type and least affected by adjacent ones i.e. furthest from the edge) and no less than 250 metres away from any other given sampling location (to maximise independence). 50 Sampling locations (20 for Pentraeth and 30 for Newborough) were selected across four stand type categories that would be as central to the coupe as possible and no less than 250 metres away from any other given sampling location (to maximise independence). This data is considered sensitive, please see the access and use restrictions for further information.
