Jaguars and Snakes
summary
Describes a workflow that processes VHF PTT and GPS telemetry CSVs into spatial points, converts points to lines, and computes kernel density and movement ranges using ArcPy and GeoPandas to infer habitat use, corridors, and movement patterns. Reports real movement range results (13–42 km over weeks), notes equipment cost (~$5,000) and lifespan (~5 months), and mentions the pipeline still works but tracking stops when a tag stops transmitting.
