Model estimates and each pairwise comparison for dry matter intake (DMI) by brushtail possums (Trichosurus vulpecula) at each temperature treatment in experiment 1. NS, not significant; ***p < 0.001. Of the random effects possum identity accounted for 155.66 (s.d. = 12.47) and experimental round accounted for 17.60 (s.d. = 4.195) of variance in the intake ratio, with a residual variance of 80.78 (s.d. = 8.98).
