Study offers insights into movement of wild pigs universityofga SciReports
. We first built the UD across the entire monitoring period for each animal, then used a moving window to incorporate each individual day as well as the 3 days prior and after. For example, day 4 would be included in calculations for days 1 through 7. Within the moving window framework, we calculated: a 50% and 95% dynamic Brownian bridge movement model utilization distribution, Euclidian distance to release site, and daily distance travelled for each pig.
For each metric, group , and habitat type , we computed a mean and standard error across the 7-day periods for 90 days post release, or until the collar was retrieved, whichever was shorter. Three translocated wild pigs returned to their original home range within 10 days of translocation . We considered animals returning to their original home range once they were within 1.6 km of initial capture location.
