... powerline easement, and seldom cross either boundary. Home ranges of radio-collared animals (which included some overlap) were 22.7 (± 5.1 s.e.) hectares for males and 9.7 (± 1.1 s.e.) hectares for females and extended to the very edge of the highway. Most road deaths, which peaked in September and October...

... ranges of rural cats ranged from 0.07ha to 2.86ha, while those of urban cats were 0.01ha to 0.64ha. Male and female cats had similar home ranges and there was no evidence of seasonal differences in home ranges. The longest linear distance moved by any cat was 300m, so allowing a 20% margin for estimation...

... almost exclusively in urban backyards and nested by day under old buildings. One female provided enough data for home range analysis, and had a home range of 2.7 ha (MCP) or 1.47 ha (KL95%); the core home range (KL50%) was only 0.16 ha. There were no signs that either individual avoided activity during...

...) which occupy large and exclusive home-ranges (30–65 ha), apparently because of the ephemeral nature of their food resources. This species is extremely vocal and this can be useful as a technique for censusing its abundance. Gliders make characteristic incisions into trees when feeding on sap...

... with large home ranges are features commonly possessed by species that have not persisted in suburban environments. ...

... studies, particularly home range studies, enlist community data to support koala conservation, and assess the effectiveness of koala habitat conservation efforts in the area. The long-term future of this koala population depends on maintaining the integrity of koala habitat throughout the region, as well...

... criteria for forests and is considered to be inadequate to ensure the survival of priority species in north-east NSW. The target assessment indicates that the most poorly reserved habitats are dry coastal and dry tablelands sclerophyll forests, and habitat for species with large home ranges and species...

... were those most susceptible to decline. These included the large, conspicuous fauna that required a substantial home range, attracted the attention of humans because of ‘pet appeal’ or due to their perceived danger; were vulnerable at some stage of the lifecycle to predation by feral species; and had...

... of the behaviour of C. rostralis are notable. Female C. rostralis exhibit a high frequency of head bobbing and conspicuous perching, two assertive behaviours that appear to be related to their maintenance of female-exclusive home ranges during the breeding season. Another assertive display, the head raised...
