- W173483103 abstract "Ten coyotes radio-tracked for 24 h periods were most active at night and moved little during daylight hours. Home-range size determined from radio-locations of 3 adult coyotes increased with the number of locations until an asymptote was reached at about 35-40 independent day locations or 3-6 nights of hourly radio-locations. Activity of the coyote did not affect the asymptotic nature of the home-range calculations, but home-range determined from more than 3 nights of hourly locations were considerably larger than home-range determined from daylight locations. Coyote home-range were calculated from daylight locations, fullnight tracking periods, and half-night tracking periods. Fulland half-night sampling strategies involved obtaining hourly radio-locations during 12 and 6 h periods, respectively. The half-night sampling strategy was the best compromise for our needs, as it adequately indexed the homerange size, reduced time and energy spent, and standardized the area calculation without requiring the researcher to become completely nocturnal. Night tracking also provided information about coyote activity and sociability. Radio-telemetry is now a common way to study coyote movements (Andelt and Gipson 1979, Berg and Chesness 1978, Gipson and Sealander 1972, Litvaitis and Shaw 1980). Although 24 h monitoring of radio-collared coyotes has been used to determine activity and daily movements (Andelt and Gipson 1979, Litvaitis and Shaw 1980), no one has compared the advantages and limitations of calculating coyote home-range size based on radiolocations obtained during the coyote's active and inactive periods. Our purpose was to compare coyote home-range based on different sample and different sampling strategies. A good sampling strategy should: (1) define a large proportion of the actual area used, (2) minimize the length of the observation period, (3) maximize the research efficiency, and (4) standardize the area calculations. For radiotracking coyotes, we propose 2 sampling strategies that have advantages over designs commonly used in the past. Critics of animal movement studies have emphasized the lack of biological interpretation of the size and shape of a species' home range (e.g. Sanderson 1966). This lack of interpretation and the inability to correlate home-range size with biological and ecological factors may be due to inconsistent methodology. Failure to standardize the number and frequency of observations (or radio-locations) and the observation period results in methodological variation. Moreover, pooling locations over a long time period to obtain adequate sample sizes eliminates sensitivity to changes in area use over time. Heezen and Tester (1967) concluded that only the mininum number of locations needed to calculate a home-range size should be used in order to increase research efficiency.
