TABLE 2.

Parameter estimates, standard errors and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for the top‐ranked multispecies occupancy model for aardwolf (Proteles cristata) and aardvark (Orycteropus after), Serengeti National Park, Tanzania, 26 August 2016–30 June 2018.

Parameter	Estimate	SE	CI
Aardwolf occupancy
Intercept	−0.273	0.195	−0.698 to 0.052
Distance to water	0.563	0.192	0.222 to 0.984
Aardvark occupancy
Intercept	−1.809	0.334	−2.477 to −1.203
Distance to water	−0.168	0.180	−0.506 to 0.197
Aardwolf‐Aardvark occupancy interaction
Intercept	1.074	0.445	0.227 to 1.936
Aardwolf detection
Intercept	−1.640	0.098	−1.831 to −1.448
Number of trees	−0.471	0.202	−0.868 to −0.075
Aardvark detection
Intercept	−1.718	0.146	−2.004 to 1.433
Number of trees	−0.394	0.273	−0.929 to 0.142

Note: The top‐ranked model included distance to water on first‐order occupancy and a second‐order species interaction term. The intercept for the interaction term had a positive, non‐overlapping confidence interval with zero (0.227–1.936), indicating a significant relationship between aardwolf and aardvark occupancy.
