Uso heterogéneo del espacio en tres territorios de reproducción del Águila-Azor Perdicera (Hieraaetus fasciatus)

Abstract:

Radio-tracking of three breeding adults of Bonelli´s eagle in the Valencian Region (Spain) was used to estimate their home range sizes with the minimum convex polygon and Kernel estimator methods and identify their core ranges with the last one method. There was a considerable variability in the size and shape between the three territories, and the frequentation of different areas within them. These preliminary results may have implications in the habitat analysis of the species and its management.
