摘要: , mitochondrial DNA, mtDNA, mustelids, non-invasivesampling,wolverineOne of the most fundamental issues in conservationbiology is determination species distributionand richness. Many species, including forest carni-vores, are elusive and secretive, making it difficult orimpossible to make even basic conservation decisionson listing, delisting, or threat status. Non-invasivesampling hairs left on hair snares can substan-tially increase our detection such species. In anextension a nationwide project using snaresacross 12 states identify lynx (
