Abstract
We used camera traps to record the presence and activity of nocturnal mammals in the Savandurga state forest, Karnataka during the monsoon and winter seasons. We recorded six species of mammals at the traps over the two seasons. These included among others the Sloth Bear, Leopard, Indian Gerbille and Common Palm Civet. Nocturnal activity was more in winter than in monsoon. There is a high level of human disturbance in the area that appears to influence the activity of animals
