Table 3 Coefficients for the top mixed effect model for 3rd order habitat selection by bobcats at Kofa National Wildlife Refuge and the variance of the random effect of individuals on each. Parameter values were standardized to deviation from the values mean as a multiple of the standard deviation to aid in model convergence. The average, maximum, minimum, and standard deviation of both the elevation and ruggedness for the collected data before this transformation is reported below the model estimates
