Summary
The analysis of capture-recapture data from 7 or fewer samples can be easily carried out using the GLIM computer package. A program is given which enables the user to be guided by the data towards selection of an appropriate model. Five examples are discussed in detail to demonstrate how easy and flexible the analysis is. These show how misleading the estimates from unthinking application of a Jolly-Seber analysis can be.
