Table 2.

The effects of time since the experiment started (0–12 days) and red fox over-marking (presence or absence of red fox scent marksa) on the presence/absence of different behaviors of red fox (n = 73) at experimental sites with lynx scats added in the Białowieża Primeval Forest, Poland, during autumn 2012

aThe absence of red fox scent marks is the reference in the analyses

bOdds ratio (eβ) quantified the change in the probability of a behavior being shown relative to the change in the fixed factor and a one-unit change in the covariate
