This terrestrial mammal trapping data package comprises terrestrial mammal survey data recorded biennially over three consecutive nights. Surveys involve the use of ten baited Elliott Traps and six cage traps which are placed at each site. The Jervis Bay Booderee National Park Plot Network was established in 2002 in Booderee National Park in the Jervis Bay Territory, South-eastern Australia. The study location is a floristically diverse area in which fire history has been well-documented over several decades. The plot network’s objectives involve quantifying the inter-relationships between natural disturbance and/or management intervention (including weed and feral animal control and prescribed burning) and the reciprocal changes in vegetation condition and biodiversity response. The Jervis Bay Booderee National Park Plot Network study forms part of the collection of data packages by this plot network. A synopsis of related data packages which have been collected as part of the Jervis Bay Booderee National Park Plot Network’s full program is provided at http://www.ltern.org.au/index.php/ltern-plot-networks/jervis-bay-booderee-national-park.

The 110 permanent sites in the study at Booderee National Park were first identified in 2002 using two stratifying variables: (1) broad vegetation type (heathland, forest, woodland, etc); and (2) past fire history – classified into four classes of time since the last fire (0-10 years, 11-20 years, 21-30 years and >30 years). The features of the experimental design - stratified random site selection, replication of classes, replication proportional to area, sampling of the plots both before and after unplanned wildfire, the occurrence of unburned ‘control’ sites and treatment (burned) sites, and continued surveys over time

Surveys involve the use of ten baited Elliott Traps spaced 10 m apart and six cage traps (4 small and 2 large) placed 20 m apart along the transect. Both Elliott and cage traps are baited with a mixture of peanut butter and rolled oats. The traps are checked within two hours of daylight for 3 consecutive mornings.
