Merriam connectivity estimates for grizzly bears and wolves between habitat patches west and east of Banff and Canmore respectively (Patch Connectivity) and across valley wide transects through the towns of Banff and Canmore (Transect Connectivity). We estimated connectivity for current and future footprints of anthropogenic development by comparing the number of simulated paths that traversed patches and transects under current and future conditions to crossing rates from reference conditions. There were no winter estimates for grizzly bears because they hibernated at that time.
