Packed with practical advice, field-tested techniques, and illustrated examples, this book takes you from setting up your first camera to analysing data for real ecological insight. Whether you’re studying conservation, managing habitats, or simply curious about what roams unseen, this handbook is your field companion for connecting with the wild.
