In this study, it is aimed to determine relationships between large-bodied mammals and their habitat preferences in Yedigoller Wildlife Reserve by using OLAP cubes (Online Analytical Processing). Success and sustainability in the wildlife management depends on firmly determining animal stocks in an area and knowing biotic and abiotic ecological factors on them. According to our results, it was found that the large-bodied animals found mostly where the oaks are available in mixed stands although the beech is the most common tree species. Large-bodied animals prefer to live in "2" and "3" degree closed stands than "0" or "4" degree closure stands. In addition, the roe deer (193 individual) are encountered frequently in class of 1000-1500 meters where red deer (41 individual) are low density and red deer (59 individual) are found mostly in class of 500-1000 meters where roe deer (122 individual) are uncommon.
