We investigated mammal fauna and the differences of their habitat usage based on infrared-triggered camera on western Tokushima Prefecture, Japan. Cameras were set on seven points on forest, seven points on abandoned land, and 17 points on Miscanthus sinensis grassland during July to November 2015. Although nine mammals were photographed, 68.4% of these photographs were those of Cervus nippon. Abandoned land and Muscanthus sinensis grassland were mainly used as feeding site for Cervus nippon, Sus scrofa and Lepus brachyurus. The appropriate management of lands, especially, abandoned land and Miscanthus sinensis grassland may lead to prevent the increasing of Cervus nippon and Sus scrofa populations.
