Abstract
⺠We describe conditional circular kernels to test hypotheses in animal activity. ⺠The models allow control of the smoothing parameter and density isopleth. ⺠We apply our models to camera-trap data on large mammals from the Pantanal. ⺠The models adequately describe the timing of main activity peaks. ⺠Activity range and activity overlap prove useful in comparing the species.
