(B): percentage of time spent in the centre of an open field. (C): number of entrances into the light area of a dark-light test. (D): percentage of time spent in the light area of a dark-light test. Bar charts represent medians and “X”s represent single individuals. N_Domestic = 10, N_Wild = 8; T = p ≤ 0.1; * = p ≤ 0.05; ** = p ≤ 0.01; *** = p ≤ 0.001.
