Camera-trapping. — To help complement the aforementioned
methods, and aiming at collecting additional Pancake tortoise ecological
information non-invasively and especially at odd hours, four E1C EREAGLE
(7.45mm Lens) trail camera traps were deployed close to the rock crevice
entrances at station 1, 2, 3, and 5. The cameras were set at video mode
so as to collect tortoise behavior and movement near the crevices.
