Maps of state \(\varvec{S'}\) with the highest within-cell proportion relative to across-cell proportion. Data were subset into a early winter (January–March) or b late winter (April–June); c years with low ice concentration (2011, 2016, 2017, and 2021) or d years with high ice concentration (2018, 2019, and 2020); and e youngest seven bears (6–14 years) or f oldest seven bears (15–20 years). Maps were based on Viterbi-decoded states and rarefied to bear days. Cells with \(<7\) bear days were not plotted and cells with \(<21\) bear days are hashed. The number of unique bears and number of locations are presented on the bottom left. The green region represents Wapusk National Park. Contour line represents the 80% utilization distribution
