Table 2. Movement parameters and home range sizes for GPS-collared jaguar across Brazil and Argentina biomes.

Home ranges were estimated via 95% Kernel Density Estimates (KDE) and Autocorrelated Kernel Density Estimates (AKDE)1.

1We used ctmm for AKDE home range estimation, following procedures by Fleming et al. (2015) [11] and Calabrese et al. (2016) [25]. For most animals we were able to fit an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck Foraging (OUF) process model (Fleming et al 2014a, b) [27,28] to estimate home range area. Home ranges for animals marked with * were based on an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) process model.

2Confidence intervals can be estimated for KDE using the ctmm package [25]. These data, however, were small and not included.
