These datasets contain field or genetic profile data for grizzly bear hair-snag sampling and scat sampling along roads in North America. See method details in the published article: Phoebus et al. 2020. A Comparison of Grizzly Bear Hair-Snag Sampling and Systematic Scat Sampling along Roads to Inform Wildlife Population Monitoring. Wildlife Biology, WLB-00697. An inadequate sample in the field data means that the particular lab test failed (i.e. species, sex or individual identification test) likely due to poor sample quality (i.e. too little DNA in the sample).
