FILE DESCRIPTION Keywords: BTPDs, female ARS vs reproductive synchrony, litter size, yearlings File name = Fig 5.12, Right side, BTPDs, Estimate of female annual reproductive success (ARS) vs reprod synchrony when litter size >=1, 22 Oct 2025 This table shows ARS of BTPD females vs reproductive synchrony of copulations within single BTPD ward (my Rankin Ridge study-colony). 1st third = copulations in first third of mating season = early copulations 2nd third = copulations in second third of mating season = synchronous copulations 3rd third = copulations in third third of mating season = late copulations The number above each SEM line indicates the number of females for which I have data.

BTPD = black-tailed prairie dog This file contains data from all four species. Early copulations occurred in the first third of the mating season; synchronous copulations in the middle third; and late copulations in the final third. SEM = standard error of mean This file shows data from BTPDs only; other graph in Fig 5.12 (left side) shows data from all four prairie dog species Litter size = litter size at first juvenile emergence = weanlings Yearlings = number of weanlings that survived for >9 months after weaning
