Behaviour parameters in the context of transient and fragmentation habitat changes. Mean values with 95% confidence interval for differences in behaviour parameter counts of balling up (a), locomotion (b) and immobile behaviour (c) of female (f) and male (m) hedgehogs for the different study phases. The difference represents changes in behaviour event counts. Negative values represent a decrease in the behaviour counts while positive values represent an increase. We considered all differences to be significant where the confidence interval does not include 0 (dashed line); (d) Mean degrees of functional coupling for each study period and sex (1 means maximal synchrony animal’s between behaviour and the environmental 24 h period, 0 means no synchrony), whiskers = 95% family-wise confident intervals.
