Abstract
The practical analysis of space use and habitat selection by animals is often a problem due to the lack of well-designed programs. I present here the “adehabitat” package for the R software, which offers basic GIS (Geographic Information System) functions, methods to analyze radio-tracking data and habitat selection by wildlife, and interfaces with other R packages. These tools can be downloaded freely on the internet. Because the functions of this package can be combined with other functions of R, “adehabitat” provides a powerful environment for the analysis of the space and habitat use.
