Description Usage Arguments Value Author(s) References See Also Examples

plot.sahrlocs applies the function widesII or widesIII for each variable in the object of class sahrlocs, and the results are stored in a list. Then, the function plot.wi is applied to each component of the list. This allows to investigate habitat selection by animals at several scales for design II and III data.

## S3 method for class 'sahrlocs'
plot(x, ani = names(x$hr), var = names(x$sa),
              type = c("hr.in.sa", "locs.in.hr", "locs.in.sa"),
              ncla = 4, ylog = FALSE, caxis = 0.7, clab = 0.7,
              errbar = c("SE", "CI"), alpha = 0.05, draw = TRUE, ...)

`x`	an object of class `sahrlocs`
`ani`	a character vector. This vector contains the names of the animals in `x` for which habitat selection should be displayed. At least two animals are required
`var`	a character vector. This vector contains the names of the variables in `x` for which habitat selection should be displayed
`type`	a character string. Type of habitat selection that should be investigated. If `"hr.in.sa"`, the selection of the home-range within the study area is displayed. If `"locs.in.sa"`, the selection of the relocations within the study area is displayed. If `"locs.in.hr"`, the selection of the relocations within the home range is displayed
`ncla`	numeric variables are converted to factors. This parameter controls the number of classes of these factors
`ylog`	logical. If `TRUE`, the selection ratios are plotted on a log scale
`caxis`	character size on axes to be passed to `par("cex.axis")`
`clab`	character size of axes labels to be passed to `par("cex.lab")`
`errbar`	a character string. Type of error bars: either `"CI"` for confidence intervals or `"SE"` for standard errors
`alpha`	the alpha-level for the tests
`draw`	logical. If `FALSE`, no plot is drawn
`...`	further arguments to be passed to the function `plot.wi`

The function returns a list of objects of class wiII or wiIII (one component per animal).

### Note that the wild boars named Brock and Calou
### have only one herbaceous cover class available
### (the second one), and they use it exclusively.
### So they have identical
### selection ratios (that's why the curve of Brock
### does not appear: it is hidden behind the curve
### of the boar named Calou).
