Total co‐occurrences of predator species across three spatiotemporal scales of analysis
Spatiotemporal scale | Wolf | Prey | Black bear | Lynx | Coyote | |

Total occupied sites | 46 | – | 44 | 27 | 23 | |
Total detections (across sites) | 334 | – | 360 | 73 | 154 |
Each value represents the total number of times both species were present at the same site and—for weekly and daily scales—within the same occasion. Rows represent response variables, and columns represent predictor variables. The total occurrences of wolves are given both within the summer‐only sampling period for black bears (14,054 site‐days) and the full sampling period for coyotes and lynx (32,436 site‐days). Cells are marked with a dash where no interactions were hypothesized or tested.
