Analyses of animal movement data have primarily focused on understanding patterns of
space use and the behavioural processes driving them. Here, we analyzed animal …

Studying the factors determining the sizes of home ranges, based on body mass, feeding
style, and sociality level, is a long-standing goal at the intersection of ecology and evolution …

Habitat selection is complex due to density dependence and functional responses, defined
as variation in relative habitat use depending on availability. In this study we unite these …

Abstract Theory on density-dependent habitat selection predicts that as population density of
a species increases, use of higher quality (primary) habitat by individuals declines while use …

The intensity of use of a location is one of the most studied properties of animal movement,
yet movement analyses generally focus on the overall use of a location without much …

Large herbivores are typically confronted by considerable spatial and temporal variation in
forage abundance and predation risk. Although animals can employ a range of behaviours …

In ungulates, parturition is correlated with a reduction in movement rate. With advances in
movement-based technologies comes an opportunity to develop new techniques to assess …

Like most aspects of ecology, the process of habitat or resource selection scales in space as
well as time. However, scaling questions have generally focused on extent including size of …

Defining biologically relevant seasons is a critical issue in the interpretation of animal space-
use studies. Moreover, understanding the effects of extrinsic (eg, predation risk) and intrinsic …

Context Spatial scale is an important consideration for understanding how animals select
habitat, and multi-scalar designs in resource selection studies have become increasingly …
