Precautions for capture-recapture methods

Precautions for capture-recapture methods

  • Organisms mix uniformly within the population.
  • Sufficient time elapsed between capture and recapture to allow uniform mixing.
  • The population is closed, i.e. there is no emigration and immigration to the specified area.
  • Making does not hinder movement of organism or make the conspicuous to predators.
  • Marking are permanent.
  • The mark does not harm the animal
  • There must be no mortality between the mark and recapture times.
  • The mark doses do not make an animal more/less easily captured
