Multiscale Habitat Relationships of a Habitat Specialist Over Time: The Case of Ocelots in Texas from 1982 to 2017

Evaluating temporal trends in habitat and behavioral responses is critical for conservation, yet long-term monitoring studies are rare. We used a 35-year dataset (1982–2017) to assess multiscale habitat use and selection by an endangered carnivore, the ocelot (Leopardus pardalis), in South Texas, USA.
