A lot of records describe a detailed story of wolf tracking. Some records include points of the animal species and their behavior, points of the holes, markers of their life, such as urine marks and excrements. \nAlso, we studied animal diversity of the Kreminsky forests, and animals’ daily activity using camera traps. Most of the events are represented by mammals. Camera records describe the diversity of mammals and birds living in forest biotopes. Some events open a detailed story of animals' daily activity, with the exact time of their visit to the camera trap point, animal curiosity, and food interests. We considered one event as the appearance of an individual of a certain animal species in the camera with a difference of 30 minutes. We also noted the time of human inspection of camera traps as a factor influencing the animals’ behavior and possible caution.\nWe used 4 camera traps Bolyguard SG520-DB, in different periods in the autumn and winter seasons.\nThe distribution of the species points was recorded using a Garmin GPSMAP 60CSx navigator.","qualityControl":"The authors of the dataset are fully responsible for the quality of data provided in it.","methodSteps":["Installation of camera traps.","Regular checks of camera traps.","Species visual identification during checks and visual registration of animals and birds.","Georeferencing.","Organising of the dataset according to the Darwin Core standards."]},"countryCoverage":[],"collections":[],"dataDescriptions":[],"dataLanguage":"eng","pubDate":"2025-06-02T00:00:00.000+00:00","maintenanceUpdateFrequency":"UNKOWN","maintenanceDescription":"","license":"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","dwca":{"coreType":"http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/Event","extensions":["http://rs.tdwg.org/dwc/terms/Occurrence"],"modified":"2026-07-11T13:17:16.359+00:00"},"approximateCounts":{"occurrenceCount":215}}
