Figure 2

Scatter plot of faecal progesterone metabolite concentrations from 12 female African elephants during one-year study. Circles represent individuals from the Lower Escarpment herd (n = 8) and triangles represent individuals from the Upper Escarpment herd (n = 4). Line represents overall mean monthly FPM concentration. Vertical bars represent mean monthly rainfall corresponding to the study period for the Lower Escarpment (dark grey bars) and Upper Escarpment (light grey bars).
