  <dc:description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;I sampled&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;movements&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;and amount of area used by&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;boreal&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;toads&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;(Bufo boreas) between June and October for 3 yr. Females were found farther from the breeding site than were males, and mean&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;home&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;ranges, as calculated by the adaptive kernel method, were four times larger for females than for males. Temperature and snow accumulation were comparable over the study, but data collection was hampered by mortality of animals caused by an outbreak of amphibian chytridiomycosis&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;in&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;yr 2. These data provide insight into use of&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;habitat&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;by&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;boreal&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;toads&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;in&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;undisturbed&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;areas but may not be typical of a completely healthy population.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</dc:description>
