Data Describing Effects of Telemetry Collars on Horses and Burros Between 2016 and 2020 This dataset includes a number of datasets collected to assess the potential effects of GPS telemetry collars on free-roaming feral equid species in North America: horses and burros. The behavior dataset (Behavioral_data_collared_uncollared.csv) includes frequency of maintenance behaviors of collared and un-collared horses at Conger Herd Management Area (HMA), and burros at Lake Pleasant and Sinbad Herd Management Areas (HMAs). The dataset also includes data on collar effects to fur and superficial effects observed, showing the count of fur effects (i.e., sweaty neck, indented fur, broken fur) and superficial effects (chafe, wound, or scab) on horses and burros over the time that they wore a collar (Collar_fur_and_superficial_effects_over_time.csv)....

We used these data to develop habitat suitability models for species found in the Eastern United States using locations with 5% cover or greater. We adapted the INHABIT modeling workflow (Young et al. 2020), using a consistent set of climatic predictors that were important in the INHABIT models. We developed models using five algorithms with VisTrails: Software for Assisted Habitat Modeling [SAHM 2.2.2]. We accounted for sampling bias by using the target background approach, and constructed model ensembles using the five models for each species for three different thresholds (conservative to targeted;1st...

Over the period of the data collection, we had 29 mountain lions equipped with telemetry collars and we investigated clusters of locations when GPS collar locations were in the same area for three nights -- we used this criteria to identify potential predation events by mountain lions, and then hiked to the GPS cluster location on foot to search for a kill site and to identify the species consumed. Collared mountain lions were both males and females, and species consumed included mule deer, feral horses, bighorn sheep, coyotes, other mountain lions, badgers, beaver,...
