Location and movement data are obtained at temporal and spatial scales, often via GPS, while satellite collars enable continuous monitoring by transmitting received records to electronic systems. Accurately extracting stable elephant activity patterns from satellite collar data remains difficult.

Location and movement data at temporal and spatial scales are collected using the Global Positioning System (GPS) to estimate the location of animals. In contrast, installing  \na satellite collar can ensure continuous monitoring, as the received data will be sent directly to the electronic mailbox. Nevertheless, identifying an exact pattern of elephant activity from satellite collar data is still challenging. This study aimed to propose a machine learning model to predict the behavioural diversity of Asian elephants. The study involved four main phases, including two levels of model development, to produce initial and primary classification models. The phases were data collection and preparation, data labelling and initial classification model development, all data classification, and primary classification model development. The elephant behaviour data were collected from the satellite collars attached to five elephants, three males and two females, in forest reserves from 2018 to 2020 by the Department of Wildlife and National Parks, Malaysia. The study’s outcome was a novel classification model that can predict the behaviour of the Asian elephant movement. The findings showed that the XGBoost method could produce the predictive model to classify Asian elephants’ behaviour with 100 percent accuracy. This study revealed the capability of machine learning to identify behaviour classes and decision-making in setting initiatives to preserve this species in the future.  \nKeywords: Machine learning, XGBoost algorithm, Satellite collar data, Behaviour classification.  \nINTRODUCTION  \nWild animals live in the wild and do not interact with humans, and consist of thousands of mammals, birds, reptiles, fish, amphibians, and insects (Chandrakar, 2018) . Wildlife refers to an animal that is not tame and has its habitat, such as forests, mountains, deserts, and even the ocean. It has a vital role in maintaining the balance of the environment because it can provide stability to different natural processes. The revolution of animal movement analysis is in line with improved positional accuracies and temporal frequency detection devices, such as ARGOS, Radio Frequency Identification (RFID), IDentification (Tag), Geotag, and Global Navigation2 Satellite System (GNSS) (Cooke et al., 2004) .
