Replication data for: Fig 5.8, Right side, WTPDs, First responses to badger, 20 Oct 2025

FILE DESCRIPTION Keywords: badger, white-tailed prairie dog, first visual and vocal alarms, ward rank File name, Fig 5.8, Right side, WTPDs, First visual and vocal alarms vs ward rank, 20 Oct 2025 Date = 09 Dec 2019 This file does NOT include number of WTPD alarm callers for each experiment These data are from my doctoral research in 1974-1976. Arap Tiny was near the Barn, Arap Small was ward on other side of road from Arap Study, and Arap Study was the main study-colony. One data point for 1st alarm for Arap Tiny seems to missing. N = 8 first alarms in this file, but N = 9 first alarms in my dissertation and in Hoogland 1981. I do not know why the difference. 1st visual = time before 1st upright alert in response to moving stuffed badger. 1st vocal = time before 1st alarm call in response to moving stuffed badger. For first upright and first alarm, numbers are for TIME IN MINUTES. Times seem slow because we pulled the badger SLOWLY. At each ward we pulled the badger from FIVE DIFFERENT SITES. Site = designation of each site. These data used for Figure 5.8 in Hoogland 2026. Numbers shown are Means + SEM. 1st visual= first visual alarm = first upright alert 1st vocal = first alarm call This file ready for longterm storage on 14 January 2025. These data are from Fig 5.8 in Hoogland 2026, right side, and show elapsed time in minute (mean + SEM) between appearance of moving stuffed badger from concealed position vs first visual alarm and first vocal alarm (= alarm call) Ward rank = relative ward size. 1 = smallest, 4 = largest Note that one column of ward sizes INCLUDES juveniles. At each ward, students and I pulled moving stuffed badgers three times from at least three different starting-points. BTPD = black=tailed prairie dog WTPD = white-tailed prairie dog Date in this file are the RAW DATA from my field notes. Note, however, that BTPD data in Fig 5.8 Left side are SUMMARIES ONLY. As of 20 Oct 2025, I cannot find the raw data field note for BTPDs.
