Finally, the study area was used as a categorical variable in order to detect possible behavioural differences between wild boar captured in different locations (OAC and FCNP).
We captured and monitored six wild boar (four females and two males) in OAC and 12 (six females and six males) in the FCNP (Supplementary material Appendix 1 Table A1).
Eventually, though, AR and MR best models did not include the study area, probably because of the fair similarity between OAC and FCNP. Anyhow, any slight difference in environmental factors characterising the two study areas would have had an attenuated effect, as we already took into account environmental factors variability by including some climatic variables (air temperature, humidity and precipitation) in our models.
