Effect of different human use types on behaviour of elk.

<p>Effect of different human use types – number of hikers, bikers, equestrians, and All Terrain Vehicles (ATV) users spotted by 32 motion activated cameras (public land n = 19, private land n = 13) – on 4 behavioural patterns recorded for focal elk (ln [scan frequency +1]; arcsine square root proportion of time grooming, scanning and travelling) observed during summer and hunting season in SW Alberta, Canada. The effect (β<u>+</u>SE) of each relationship was reported as estimated by linear regression [<i>ns</i>: not significant <i>(p></i>0.4 in all cases); <i>*</i>: 0.05<<i>p</i><0.01; <i>**</i>: 0.01<<i>p</i><0.001; <i>***</i>: <i>p</i><0.001].
