Abstract

Wildlife diversity monitoring is a crucial approach for biodiversity conservation and an essential task within nature reserves. The Ma’anshan Nature Reserve in Ganluo County, Sichuan Province, is located in a mountainous canyon area transitioning from the western edge of the Sichuan Basin to the Tibetan Plateau. It serves as an important distribution area for the southernmost marginal population of the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca). This study compiled a total of 1,136.08 GB of infrared camera monitoring data collected from 2021 to 2024 in the region. After screening and species identification, a comprehensive dataset of bird and mammal observations from infrared cameras was provided. The dataset covers 59 effective survey points, accumulating 17,586 camera days and capturing 38,482 video records. Among these, there were 12,325 mammal records, with 5,911 independent valid detections, covering 24 mammal species across 4 orders and 14 families. Additionally, 5,427 bird records were documented, with 1,578 independent valid detections, involving 51 bird species across 5 orders and 21 families. This dataset provides a checklist of the bird and mammal species and spatiotemporal distribution information, offering fundamental data for understanding the current state of biodiversity in the reserve and supporting subsequent conservation management as well as further research.
