Fig. 1 The three comparisons considered within our study: a)
Raccoon temporal activity was compared between sites; b) raccoon
activity was compared between years, and across zones of coyote
intensity of use within each site; c) the results from the within site
comparisons of raccoon time use in response to coyotes were compared
across sites.
Fig. 2 Kernel density (KD) heatmaps of coyote spatial use at
the four study sites based on the number of independent coyote
detections at each camera. From north to south, the Huron Mountain Club
(HMC), the University of Michigan Biological Station (UMBS), the
Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge (SNWR), and the Detroit Metroparks
(DMP). These represent a single year at each of the sites; hotspots in
coyote detections varied by year, and KD maps were generated for each
survey.
Fig. 3 Mean temporal overlap (Δtemporal)
between raccoons and coyotes in high and low spatial zones of coyote
activity with 95% confidence intervals.
Fig. 4 Mean temporal overlap (Δ Overlap) in raccoon activity
conducted pairwise between sites with 95% confidence intervals. The
letters correspond with each site (H=HMC, U=UMBS, S=SNWR, D=DMP), with
the site it was compared to on the axis below. The differences between
sites in each pairwise comparison were significant (using the MWW test).
Fig. 5 Raccoon activity across all four sites. Time use of
raccoons was summed for all surveys within a site.
