## GPS and activity data from wild boars tracked in Southern France

This archive contains the GPS and activity data that was collected from the wild boars studied in the paper. An additional file provides information on the deployment of the collars on the animals.


## Description of the Data and file structure
#### GPS_wild_boars_CEFE_CRNS.csv
This file contains the GPS position of the animals studied in the paper.
There are 7 columns:
- ID: a unique identifier of individual wild boars
- sex: male (M) or female (F). NA if unknown.
- study_area: identifier of the study site where the animal was captured and lived (*Gorges du Gardon* or *Pic St-Loup*). The study sites are described in the paper. 
- acquisition_time_utc: time of the acquisition of the GPS position, in UTC. The format that was used is DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS.
- lat: latitude of the GPS position (WGS84)
- long: longitude of the GPS position (WGS84)
- dop: dilution of precision. Low values indicate a good precision, while high values point out less accurate positions.

#### ACT_wild_boars_CEFE_CRNS.csv
This file contains the GPS position of the animals studied in the paper.
There are 5 columns:
- ID: a unique identifier of individual wild boars
- sex: male (M) or female (F). NA if unknown.
- study_area: identifier of the study site where the animal was captured and lived (*Gorges du Gardon* or *Pic St-Loup*). The study sites are described in the paper. 
- acquisition_time_utc: time of the acquisition of the GPS position, in UTC. The format that was used is DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS.
- ACT: activity level along the anteroposterior axis, ranging between 0 (no activity) to 255. This value is an average of 8HZ acceleration measurements made over an interval of 5 minutes.


#### deployment_details_wild_boars_CEFE_CRNS.csv
This file contains the GPS position of the animals studied in the paper.
There are 8 columns:
- ID: a unique identifier of individual wild boars
- sex: male (M), female (F), or unknown (NA).
- study_area: identifier of the study site where the animal was captured and lived (*Gorges du Gardon* or *Pic St-Loup*). The study sites are described in the paper. 
- deployment_time_utc: time of the release of the animal, after the capture, in UTC. The format that was used is DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS.
- tracking_end_time_utc: time of the end of the survey, in UTC. This time was set shortly before the animal was dead or the collar was fallen. The format that was used is DD/MM/YYYY HH:MM:SS.
- reason_end: cause of the en of the survey; death of the animal (Mortality), or fall of the collar (Fallen).
- detailed_reason_end:more detailed cause of the end of the survey. A collar may have fallen on its own (Loose_collar), or through the activation of the drop-off system (Drop-off). The individual might have been killed by a vehicle (Collision_with_vehicle), or by hunters (Hunting).
- audio_data: Was audio data collected from this animal (using an audiologger; see description in the paper).
