Back
- no deaths due to predation
- no emigration/immigration between first and second sample
- death rate and birth rate remains equal between samples
- mark does not affect probability of survival

- marked:unmarked ratio in second sample = marked:unmarked ratio in population

- marked individuals distribute evenly amongst population
