Table 2 The results of log-linear models for the frequencies of occurrence of predation loss causes of artificial nests and hatchlings (dummies) in three wetlands (A1-A3) in Hungary and prey type (egg, turtle), for the effect of area and prey type, and their interaction. MSC – summarized medium-sized carnivores.* bolded P-values with Bonferroni corrections indicate significance at the P < 0.0125 level.
