1 INTRODUCTION Understanding the determinants of animal movement decisions using telemetry data is essential for conservation efforts and gaining insights into how animals respond to environmental resources. This analytical framework is commonly referred to as habitat selection analysis. The idea of this framework is to understand space use based on spatial features (Forester et al., 2009; Kays et al., 2015; Nathan et al., 2008; Northrup et al., 2022).

AbstractHabitat selection analysis includes resource selection analysis (RSA) and step selection analysis (SSA). These frameworks are used in order to understand space use of animals. Particularly, the SSA approach specifies the space availability of sequential locations through a movement kernel. This movement kernel is typically defined as the product of independent parametric distributions of step lengths (SLs) and turning angles (TAs).
