Examples of Correlated Random Walks (CRW) simulations: (a) Trajectory (blue line) simulated from the dispersal movement characteristics of the GPS-collared wolf M 03-01 (Lower left corner, from electronic supplementary material, figure A2, appendix 2). The simulated trajectory goes from the natal (blue) to the established (red) territory of a male (G 53-10) that dispersed over a long distance. The locations of the territories occupied 1 year before establishment (t − 1) are shown in orange. The randomly selected territory along the simulated dispersal trajectory is shown in green. The study area is shown in dark grey. (b) Real dispersing trajectory (red line), from the natal (blue) to the established (red) territory of the GPS-collared wolf M 14-06. The blue, orange, pink and green lines represent examples of CRW simulated by using the dispersing characteristics of the GPS trajectory of the same individual (Lower left corner, from electronic supplementary material, figure A2, appendix 2).
