Breeding likelihood and breeding success of the Mt. Hehuan and Wulai populations in summer in Wulai a, b (burial rate: χ²1 = 4.60, p = 0.03, n = 120, breeding success: χ²1 = 1.13, p = 0.29, n = 120; post hoc comparison: burial rate: z = 2.202, P = 0.028, breeding success: z = −0.955, P = 0.34), and Mt. Hehuan c, d (burial rate: χ²1 = 12.96, p < 0.001, n = 93; breeding success: χ²1 = 8.60, p = 0.003, n = 93; post hoc comparison: burial rate: z = 4.185, P < 0.0001, breeding success: z = 3.012, P = 0.026), and in winter in Wulai e, f (burial rate: χ²1 = 0.26, p = 0.61, n = 78; breeding success: χ²1 = 1.90, p = 0.17, n = 78), and Mt. Hehuan g, h (burial rate: χ²1 = 2.45, p = 0.12, n = 83; breeding success: χ²1 = 3.88, p = 0.05, n = 83; post hoc comparison: burial rate: z = −1.969, P = 0.049). All the analyses were conducted by GLMM, and the p values were obtained from the two-sided tests. The standard error was presented as the error bar; p < 0.1; *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001.
