DAVAO CITY—Government and global raptors’ conservation program are introducing “new spatial methods to conserve the critically endangered Philippine eagle are being used for the first time” to allow greater tracking of the movement of the eagle and help conservationists plot the direction and range estimates of the eagle in the wild.
The Philippine Eagle Foundation and the Peregrine Fund also sponsored the webinar, which described the new program as “using remote sensing data to model population distribution in Eastern Mindanao Biodiversity Corridor.” “Rather than employing a single home range estimator, we recommend that analysts consider multiple approaches to animal movement data to fully explore space-time and resource use,” he said.
Sutton explained: “Here, we apply satellite telemetry and remote sensing technologies to provide first estimates of home-range size and resource selection for six adult Philippine eagles [], using five home range estimators and non-parametric resource selection functions.” The International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List uses three range metrics that define species distributions and inform extinction risk assessments: extent of occurrence, area of occupancy and area of habitat.
