Listed in data.InDoRES
FILE DESCRIPTION Keywords: territorial calls, ward size, white-tailed prairie dogs File name = Fig 5.5, Right side, WTPDs, territorial calls vs ward size, 24 Sept 2025 Vocal conspicuousness during the mating season vs ward size for white-tailed prairie dogs (1975).
Description
The number above each bar indicates the number of days of observation for 1-2 hours per day. I counted territorial calls at each ward only once per day.
I assumed that data from different days from the same colony were independent. These data were collected in late June or July 1975, when juveniles had emerged from their natal nursery-burrows in late May or early June. Estimated ward size includes adults and yearlings only (no juveniles), and are the maximal counts I ever observed.

Ranks and sizes of colonies and wards for most of the other graphs for my book also do NOT include juveniles. Data for this figure come from summations of data in Tables 1 and 3 of Hoogland 1979 (superscript 1282), for which I could not easily calculate standard errors. BTPD = black-tailed prairie dog, WTPD = white-tailed prairie dog.
Note
Comparable data from BTPDs (Fig 5.5, Left side) DO include juveniles.
Note
WTPD territorial calls are also called laughing barks (see Waring 1970 and Hoogland 2026)
