Summary
These data reflect movement values for brown treesnakes from Guam that were translocated (moved by humans) to new locations or were resident (left in place) on Guam. The data are related to the specimen's treatment group, individual values, locations and other details affiliated with radio telemetry based acquisition and positional changes by the individual snakes across tracking events. The data were collected to help inform early detection and rapid response efforts for brown treesnakes in the Mariana Islands.

These data were collected to better understand the movement ecology of brown treesnakes based on their status as a resident or translocated snake. The extent of the appropriate use of the data is to simulate snake movement across an urban landscape to inform the optimal search areas needed to locate a snake based on the expectation that it is either a resident or recently introduced individual. The data are suitable for use to simulate brown treesnake movement in the Mariana Islands.
