“…Animal movement behavior has been used in many contexts to evaluate aspects of habitat or habitat quality (e.g. Dumont et al, 2007;Korösi et al, 2008;Dias et al, 2009;Dodge et al, 2014;Crone et al, 2019;Murphy and Boone, 2022;Pugesek and Crone, 2022); however, studies of butterfly movement have rarely been applied to evaluate habitat under grazing management (Bussan, 2022; but see Schtickzelle et al, 2007;Ehl et al, 2019). We quantified withinhabitat diffusion rates to understand butterfly perceptions of habitat quality in conventional grazing, conservation grazing, and native upland prairie.…”
