Habitat selection is a multi-scale process driven by trade-offs between benefits, such as
resource abundance, and disadvantages, such as the avoidance of risk. The latter includes …

Energetic demands and fear of predators are considered primary factors shaping animal
behavior, and both are likely drivers of movement decisions that ultimately determine the …

Artificial light at night (ALAN) is increasing in extent and intensity across the globe. It has
been shown to interfere with animal sensory systems, orientation and distribution, with the …

Context Developed landscapes are increasingly important movement habitat for many large
carnivore populations, despite fragmentation and heightened anthropogenic risks. The …

Context Adjustments in habitat use by large carnivores can be a key factor facilitating their
coexistence with people in shared landscapes. Landscape composition might be a key …
