Reproductive stage and BW influence peak thermal preference (Least square means ± SE)
| Effect | Peak temperature, °C | SE | F-value | P-value |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reproductive stage | F 2,15 = 10.92 | .001* | ||
| Nonpregnant | 14.80* | 1.12 | ||
| Mid | 14.80* | 1.11 | ||
| Late | 14.00+ | 1.05 | ||
| Weight, kg | F 1,15 = 10.42 | 0.005* |
Different symbols and * denote a significant difference in peak thermal preference between parameters Tukey tests (P < 0.01).
