The scales of space and time over which biotic interactions influence distribution patterns remain an area of debate. Biotic interactions may be particularly influential in the ecology of mammalian carnivores, which engage in strong predator–prey and competitive interactions. Regional, multi‐scale data on distribution patterns of interacting carnivore species are key to informing our understanding of this issue.

Keywords: spatial temporal; temporal scale; influence spatial; scale relative; distributions influence; relative importance
