Abstract:Knowing the location and movements of individuals at various temporal and spatial scales is an important facet of behavior and ecology. In threatened populations, movements that would ensure gene flow and population viability are often challenged by habitat fragmentation. Also in those endangered populations capturing and handling individuals to tag them, or to obtain tissue samples, can present additional challenges. DNA tagging, i.e. non‐invasive individual identification of samples, can reveal movement patt… Show more
