  1. Detections·day−1 represents the average number of detections per day across all 75 unique receivers that tags were detected on (mean ± standard deviation), whereas detections·day−1·receiver−1 represents the average number of detections per day of a tag at each of the 75 receivers (mean ± standard deviation). Total receivers is the total number of unique receivers that the tag was detected on for the duration of the study
