Abstract
Summary and full movement dataset for adult female wild pigs (Sus scrofa; n = 10) trapped and GPS-collared on the Sam D. Hamilton Noxubee National Wildlife Refuge (Refuge), 2020-2021, in Noxubee, Oktibbeha, and Winston counties of Mississippi. The movement dataset was cleaned by removing fixes that did not follow the 2-hour fix rate programmed for each collar (i.e., fixes with missed fixes or NAs before and after). The dataset has both "Date_Time" and "TimeDiff" columns that better illustrate this point. While all collars were deployed on adult females from unique sounders, it is worth noting that pigs 26628 and 35489 spent many months in close proximity in a possibly "merged" sounder after they were trapped and GPS-collared in July 2021 at the Prisock Fields near the west-central boundary of the Refuge.
