Table 1. Carcass detection rates estimated for 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 using assigned ages of carcasses (i.e. time since poaching event took place).

Carcass Detection Rates
Time since poaching event 2010 2011 2012 2013 Average
(n = 103) (n = 167) (n = 326) (n = 266) (95% CI)
1 week 0.67 0.73 0.56 0.55 0.63
(0.54–0.71)
2 weeks 0.82 0.84 0.73 0.73 0.78
(0.72–0.83)
1 month 0.87 0.93 0.85 0.91 0.89
(0.86–0.93)
2 months 0.95 0.98 0.90 0.97 0.95
(0.92–0.98)
3 months 0.98 0.98 0.92 0.97 0.96
(0.94–0.99)

We also provide the average detection rates across all four years and the number of carcasses for which time since death estimates were available.
