Note: LPD is leopard identity, F = female, M = male, A = adult, SA = sub-adult, Mo. = number of months tracked, Aq. % = the percentage of
available tracking days when locations were aquired, n is the number of periods with >50 recorded locations, and for the mean is the number of
leopards. Leopard F035 has been listed twice; once as a sub-adult and once as an adult after she had moved out of her natal area and
established another home range elsewhere.
