Figure 4.

Comparison of characteristics of refuge sites used by 23 radio‐tagged cane toads initially infected with Rhabdias pseudosphaerocephala, 12 of which had been subsequently dewormed. Under dry conditions, the six infected toads used refugia that were closer to the water (a) and moister (b) than those used by six dewormed toads. Under wet conditions following a period of heavy rainfall, the five infected toads and six dewormed toads were found in refugia at similar distances from water (c) and with similar desiccation rates (measured using agar models) (d). Graphs show mean values ± 1 SE. Asterisks denote significant differences between groups
