Abstract

The data contain capture data for small mammals, capture data for coleopterans, and camera trap data for black-backed jackals. The data relate to activity patterns of the various organisms relative to treatments associated with blue wildebeest carcass decomposition. Our analyses were based on a Before, After, Control, and Impact design. The data here cover both the immediate before and after treatments relative to carcass deployment and they relate to seasonal observations subsequent to carcass deployment.
