Rates of interactive behaviour between focal escorts and control pups during the pre-removal, post-removal and post-release treatments of focal pups. (a) For focal escorts, the rate of control-pup-initiated follows (pre-removal versus post-removal t=3.65, p=0.0012; pre-removal versus post-release t=0.23, p=0.82 and post-removal versus post-release t=3.34, p=0.0026). (b) For focal escorts, the rate of control-pup-initiated contact (pre-removal versus post-removal t=3.03, p=0.0056; pre-removal versus post-release t=0.44, p=0.66 and post-removal versus post-release t=2.53, p=0.018). (c) For control pups, the rate of focal-escort-initiated contact (pre-removal versus post-removal t=3.76, p<0.001; pre-removal versus post-release t=0.17, p=0.87 and post-removal versus post-release t=3.86, p<0.001). (d) For control pups, the rate of focal-escort-initiated grooming (pre-removal versus post-removal t=2.43, p=0.023; pre-removal versus post-release t=0.08, p=0.094 and post-removal versus post-release t=2.46, p=0.021). (e) For control pups, the rate of focal-escort-initiated provisioning (pre-removal versus post-removal t=1.86, p=0.075; pre-removal versus post-release t=0.48, p=0.64 and post-removal versus post-release t=2.29, p=0.031). (f) For control pups, the rate of control-pup-initiated provisioning (pre-removal versus post-removal t=3.20, p=0.0037; pre-removal versus post-release t=1.23, p=0.23 and post-removal versus post-release t=1.92, p=0.067).
