The first day of collection 7 large males were recaptured in the study area of MRR3 at an MDT of 533.48 meters. MRR = mark-release-recapture; ND = not determined because no males were recaptured; Cum. = cumulative. P values refer to Mann-Whitney U test results when comparing differences between large and small males in MedianDT and MaxDT.
