Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We analysed the movement of seven female camels collared in the Anangu Pitjantjatjara Yankunytjatjara Lands of South Australia. Understanding the movement patterns of feral camels and subsequently where high densities are likely to threaten biodiversity and cultural assets, provides land managers and government agencies with information and decision support tools to manage camel impacts. Accordingly, we tested if there were any seasonal changes in camel movement, any measurable separation between home range and migration, and any relationship between broader camel landscape use, rainfall and mountainous terrain. We fitted ARGOS GPS satellite collars to seven female camels in South Australia during August 2007 and found evidence to suggest that over a 12-month study period, some camels had returned to locations that they had previously visited. This cyclic movement pattern was more regular up to ~50 days, however, one collared individual returned to a previous location after 300 days. Despite only having a small sample size, we did find camels moving into areas that received higher rainfalls in the warmer months and possibly some attraction of these camels to steep mountainous terrain over this period.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
