Multi‐scalar habitat selection unveils ecological domains in wolves when selecting rendezvous sites
Journal of Zoology, EarlyView.Although habitat generalists, wolves may become particularly choosy when locating homesites (i.e., dens and rendezvous sites) especially in human‐modified landscapes. Using a multiscale approach, we investigated rendezvous sites (RV) selection in a historical stronghold of wolves in central Italy. Human infrastructure (i.e.
