From: African wild dog movements show contrasting responses to long and short term risk of encountering lions: analysis using dynamic Brownian bridge movement models

Fig. 4

Changes over time in wild dog movements (as measured by Brownian motion variance) for specific packs, each over one year. Motion variance is plotted on the ordinate as it changes over time. Background shading of the plot frame shows the wet (blue) and dry (yellow) season. The colors of the bar at the bottom show the reproductive status of the pack (no accompanying pups (green), denning (orange), and with accompanying pups (purple). In the packs A, B & C, the alpha female was radio-collared; in pack D, the alpha male was collared. See methods for the details of analysis that addressed this difference. Large red dots denote cases in which a pack was known to be within 2 km of a monitored lion pride. Color of the points excluding red dots indicate designated protection status of the area (blue: within the National Park, orange: within Game Management Areas)
