Replication data for: Fig 9.2, Coterie and clan lifespans, BGW, 03 December 2025

FILE DESCRIPTION Keywords: coterie lifespan, clan lifespan, BGW File name: Fig 9.2, Coterie and clan lifespans, BGW, 03 December 2025 Here I compare (A) Lifespan of BTPD territory vs (b) Lifespan of GPD territory vs lifespan of WTPD territory For BTPDs, I cut and paste data from SYSTAT file = cotspan.sys, which I used for    Hoogland 1995 (my first book, The black-tailed prairie dog) and created on    10 October 1989. I assume all data checked TWO TIMES upon creation. Coterie or clan number = numerical designation for each coterie or clan. For GPDs, I cut and paste data from SYSTAT file = gterrdur.sys, which I used    for Hoogland 1999 (Philopatry, dispersal, and social organization...) . I assume all GPD data    checked TWO TIMES UPON CREATION. Lifespan = number of consecutive years for which at least one coterie or clan female--or their their female descendants--survived. No data for Utah prairie dogs, because I did not calculate UPD territories every year Output for both BTPDs and GPDs is identical to output for Hoogland 1995 and Hoogland 1999. BTPD = black-tailed prairie dog, GPD = Gunnison's prairie dog, WTPD = white-tailed prairie dog These data used for Figure 9.2 in Hoogland 2026. This file ready for longterm storage on 04 Feb 2025. I add WTPD data on 03 Nov 2025. These WTPD data not published previously File name: Fig 9.2, Coterie and clan lifespans, BGW, 03 December 2025
