abstract="Knowledge of the jaguar population is needed in French Guiana that faces an increase of human-jaguar conflicts. We carried out a camera trap survey to assess jaguar local density and home range size in a preserved coastal area of French Guiana. We ran spatially explicit capture recapture (SECR) models. In our model, the scale parameter $\sigma$, that is linked to the home range size, was larger for males ($\sigma$=3.87{\textpm}0.59 SE km) than for females ($\sigma$=2.33{\textpm}0.30 SE km). The assessed jaguar density was 3.22{\textpm}0.87 SE ind. 100 km {\^a} {\textquoteright}2, which should be considered as an optimal density in a French Guiana coastal area.",
