Movement and habitat use by animals in herds sampled for dietary DNA in Yellowstone National Park. Overall, samples from each species were obtained from (a) lower elevations (m), (b) smaller areas (km2) and (c) fewer habitat types (habitat richness) during winter. Collared animals were tracked by the National Park Service between December 2016 and January 2018, depending on species. The average body size of each species, the number of collared animals in winter and the number of collared animals in summer that were used to calculate movement data are shown in parentheses.
