Hi folks
I was wondering if you could help me to modify some code so that I can plot 23 sessions of boodie captures in a nice format? It looks like there is a significant amount of decline in the movement of boodies among traps over the sessions. This may or may not be associated with the process of defining new home-ranges following translocation of boodies or just an increase in boodie abundance over the years. I want to decrease the point size and text size in these graphs, but cex is an unused command in the read.capthist command and it doesn’t appear to work in subsequent plot command. Any ideas for changing the formats of these plots will be greatly appreciated.
BL<-read.capthist(captfile="2010_2019_BL_SECR_capturedata.txt",
trapfile = "2010_2019_BL_SECR_traplocs.txt",
detector = "multi",
fmt=c("trapID","XY"),
noccasions=123)
summary(BL)
##Plot your trap locations only, may look weird unless par(mfrow=c(1,1))
plot(traps(BL))
##Plot your animal tracks across your trap locations
plot(BL,tracks=TRUE)

par (mar=c(1,0.1,1,0.1))
plot(BL,tracks=TRUE, pch=1, cex=0.1)
