Replication Data for: Fig 22.4, WTPDs, Percentage of individuals still in the natal coterie territory at different ages, 29 July 2026

The number above each bar indicates the sample size for each age. Note that numbers here and in graph are for PERCENTAGES These data checked TWO TIMES on 05 July 2021, again on 24 July 2026. These data used for Fig 22.4 in Hoogland 2026.

This file ready for longterm storage on 22 April 2025. Percentage = <.> means no data. For WTPD ages 1 through 3 , P < 0.013 for all interspecific comparisons (2x2 chi-square test) For year-4, P > 0.300, Fisher Exact test.

No WTPD males were still alive at the study colony beyond 5 years. See Fig 11.9. No WTPD females were still alive at the study colony beyond 6 years.

See Fig 11.9. This figure shows that long-term philopatry for WTPDs was common for females, but rare for males. Age in this EXCEL file and Fig 22.4 = years since first emergence from the natal burrow entrance Information in this EXCEL file and Fig 22.4 comes from SUMMARIES of data over many years.

Raw data for these summaries are in my field notes. Age in this EXCEL file = years since first emergence from the natal burrow entrance All data on philopatry in this EXCEL file and in Fig 22.4 are from prairie dogs that remained at the study-colony. For Fig 22.4, I have no information on prairie dogs that dispersed long-distance away from the study-colony.
