Elk GPS collar data from National Elk Refuge 2006-2015

공공데이터포털

17 adult female elk were captured on or around the National Elk Refuge and monitored with GPS collars from 2006 to 2015. Each of these elk were monitored for 1 to 2 years and migrated from the National Elk Refuge to Yellowstone National Park during the spring. Here we provide the unique identifier for each individual elk, the date/time stamp of each GPS location, the GPS location of the elk in UTMs and Lat-Long, the month of each GPS location, the year of each GPS location, and the date of each GPS location in numeric form.

Elk GPS collar data in southern GYE 2007-2015

공공데이터포털

288 adult and yearling female elk were captured on 22 Wyoming winter supplemental elk feedgrounds and monitored with GPS collars during the brucellosis risk period (February – July) from 2007 to 2015. There were 4 to 64 individual elk per feedground and each elk was monitored for 1 to 2 years. Here we provide the unique identifier for each individual elk, the GPS location of the elk, the date/time stamp of the GPS location, and the feedground the elk was captured on in Wyoming.

Aggregation metrics for elk on the National Elk Refuge, Wyoming, January 1 to May 1, 2017-2022.

공공데이터포털

This data release contains summarized elk aggregation metrics generated from Global Positioning System (GPS) collar locations of elk on the National Elk Refuge in Jackson, Wyoming. Aggregation metrics include annual kernel density estimates of the area used by elk on the National Elk Refuge, daily measures of inter-elk distances, daily pairwise proximity, and daily mean proximity and associated explanatory covariates.

Remotely sensed elk locations on the National Elk Refuge, Wyoming, 2017-2019

공공데이터포털

Remotely sensed elk locations from satellite imagery, Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) imagery, and Global Positioning System (GPS) collar locations were collected during the winter of 2018 and the winter and spring of 2019 at the National Elk Refuge in Jackson, Wyoming. The dataset associated with this data release provides the source, date, time, latitude, and longitude of elk locations and the type of analyses the locations were used in as reported in the accompanying manuscript by Graves and others 2021; XXXXXXXXXXX.

West Green River elk herd locations in southwestern Wyoming, 2005-2010

공공데이터포털

Between 2005 and 2010, 61 adult female elk were trapped using a baited corral trap on Fossil Butte National Monument during winter. An additional 12 female elk were darted from a helicopter during the winter of 2007 near Cokeville, WY, located approximately 20 km northwest of the Monument. We affixed all elk with GPS collars programmed to collect location data every 5 hours. In total we collected 209,250 locations over the study period for ~141 elk years of data.

Elk abundance and seroprevalence data in southern GYE 1993-2015

공공데이터포털

We calculated mean adult and yearling female elk abundance for each Wyoming winter supplemental feedground subpopulation for data collected from 2009 to 2015. In addition, the average seroprevalence of brucellosis in elk attending feedgrounds was based on blood samples from adult and yearling female elk from 1993 to 2015. The sample size of disease tests and the number of years over which they were collected on each feedground are also listed. Serological profiles were categorized using the 2003 U.S. Department of Agriculture brucellosis eradication uniform methods and rules for cervids. These serological tests indicate whether or not an individual has been exposed, but not whether they are currently infected.

Annual winter elk movements in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem 2001-2015

공공데이터포털

521 unique elk were monitored across several years with GPS collars in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem to determine winter-to-winter annual dispersal distances. There were a total of 704 annual movements. The dataset spans from 2001 to 2015. Annual movements were based on a single location in January or February and another location in the subsequent winter. An individual elk was included at most three times (once for each year) in the data. All elk were female, except one of the individuals in the dataset was a male. We included his movement in the analysis for completeness, but as there was only one male we chose not to directly model any differences in movement behavior between male and female elk.
