Fig. 2. Experiment 1. Incidence-rate ratios (±95% confidence interval) of pair-wise comparisons between treatments. (A) Locomotion (critical P-value=0.005), (B) push-up/body-rocks (critical P-value=0.01) and (C) gular expansion (critical P-value=0.025). *Significant difference between the responses for the two treatments in each pair.

Fig. 3. Experiment 2. Incidence-rate ratios (±95% confidence interval) of pair-wise comparisons between treatments. (A) Attack (critical P-value=0.008) and (B) gular expansion (critical P-value=0.017). *Significant difference between the responses for the two treatments in each pair.
