- Abstract Wolves constitute an essential part of the carnivore predator complex in the Himalayan region as an umbrella species. The present chapter thus deals with the description of movement, home range, and the patterns of habitat selection in the context of Himalayan wolves, an apex predator in the Spiti region of the Cold Western desert of Himalaya. The study hypothesized that wolves’ habitat selection would be strongly driven not only by the quantity of refuge (habitat type) available but also by its quality (intra habitat factors) and by the level of human activity in the surrounding areas. To undertake the study, three individuals were GPS-tagged between 2015-2017. It was observed that the 50% MCP home ranges of wolves were 338.59 ± 122.80 km2. The 50 % Kernel Utilisation Distribution (KUD) Home Ranges was 86.38 ± 81.50 km2. The 95% of home ranges were 1044.26 ± 56.27 km2 and 449.53 ± 407.99 km2 for MCP and KUD, respectively. The 95 % Biased Random Bridge Utilisation (BRB), intensity, and recursion utilization distributions were computed for Leica as 433.9 km2, 765.5 km2, and 823.1 km2 respectively. Similarly, for Kunzum is was calculated as 229.7 km2, 342.4 km2, and 353.8 km2. For Dhankar, it was computed as 180.4 km2, 358.2 km2, and 326.4 km2. The home ranges were also tabulated for 30 % and 50%, respectively, for all the individuals. The AKDE movement models generated a home range of Leica, Kunzum and Dhankar were 2938.14 km2, 3045.82 km2, and 978.34 km2, respectively. It was found that wolves used much of the landscape in juxtaposition with human dominance. BRB movement models depicted better utilization of space by wolves. The study shows that wolves avoided highly urbanized areas and were mostly in areas with lower road densities. The movement trajectories of wolves showed by FPT analysis showed peaks and valleys of intensive space use as well as transience. The highlights of space use and choices made by individual wolves in the region are described in the study.
