	Reserve, southern India, during November 2000. The species of interest
	were chital \textit{Axis axis}, sambar \textit{Cervus unicolor},
	muntjac \textit{Muntiacus muntjak}, gaur \textit{Bos gaurus} and
	Hanuman langur \textit{Presbytes entellus}. Six permanent transects,
	ranging from 2.6 to 3.6 km (totalling 18.2 km) were each walked 26
	times. A total of 473 km was walked during the surveys. Numbers of
	detections were generally low (51, 25, 68, 17 and 302 for chital,
	sambar, muntjac, gaur and langur, respectively). Mean estimated densities
	of different species were [\hat D (± SE)]: 4.51 (± 1.05) chital km-2,
	0.89 (± 0.23) sambar km -2, 3.64 (± 0.63) muntjac km-2, 1.48 (± 0.63)
	gaur km-2 and 22.62 (± 2.64) langur km-2. Possible shortcomings of
	our estimates are considered and suggestions made for improving future
	surveys. A comparison with densities estimated for these species
	in other well-protected parks showed that the chital, gaur and sambar
	densities in Bhadra were extremely low. The main causal factors for
	these low densities seem to be poaching and livestock grazing.},
