Detection of Paradoxurus philippinensis in Mt. Calavite Wildlife Sanctuary (MCWS), Philippines, on different moon phases

Using a non-invasive sampling established in a 14 km² land area of MCWS, observation of Paradoxorus philippinensis concerning different cycles of the moon showed that most records of appearance were during the Half and Gibbous phases. A multinomial Chi-Square test points out that the amount of civet detection on various moon phases is significantly different, implicating possible inferences on the effects of moon phases in Philippine palm civet’s nocturnal activity.

Abstract

Using a non-invasive sampling established in a 14 km² land area of MCWS, observation of Paradoxorus philippinensis concerning different cycles of the moon showed that most records of appearance were during the Half and Gibbous phases. A multinomial Chi-Square test points out that the amount of civet detection on various moon phases is significantly different, implicating possible inferences on the effects of moon phases in Philippine palm civet’s nocturnal activity.
