Fig. 1From: Food availability positively affects the survival and somatic maintenance of hibernating garden dormice (Eliomys quercinus)Body mass change of garden dormice hibernating with food at different temperatures during winter. Body mass loss of animals hibernating at 3 °C (blue line) and 14 °C (orange line) over all four periods (weeks). Time was considered as a continuous variable in the model. Post-hoc analyses showed no significant differences between groups at different sampling times: W0 = Week 0, W7 = Week 7, W12 = Week 12, W20 = Week 20, W25 = Week 25Back to article page
