Hi Paolo,

It seems an interesting paper. I do not have access to the full paper from my office (I am not a registered user for this journal), but reading the summary, it would be interesting to see the relationships between this method and the method proposed some time ago by Wray et al. (1992):

@INCOLLECTION{CC105,
 author = {Wray, S. and Cresswell, W.J. and Rogers, D.},
title = {Dirichlet tesselations: a new, non-parametric approach to home range
   analysis},
booktitle = {Wildlife telemetry. Remote monitoring and tracking of animals},
 year = {1992},
 editor = {Priede, I.G. and Swift, S.M.},
 volume = {231-246},
 series = {Ellis Horwood},
 address = {New York},
keywords = {radiotelemetry radiotracking home range size dirichlet tesselation}
}

which is a similar method relying on the Voronoi tesselation instead of the Delaunay triangulation of the relocations (though the latter seems more sensible to me). I'll try to get a copy of this paper and to see whether this could be implemented in adehabitat
Thanks for the link!
Regards,

Clément Calenge
