1. Resource-selection analysis compares the distributions of animals relative to the distribution of habitat.
If the two don't agree, there is evidence of selection. A survey of 106 moose found that 24 were located in "In burn - interior,"
22 in "In burn - edge," 20 in "Out of burn - edge," and 40 in "Other" habitat types.
The corresponding proportion of the landscape as determined by a Geographic Information System (GIS) in these habitats was
0.340, 0.101, 0.104, and 0.455 respectively.
