also provided helpful advice. Steve Carr and Malcolm 
Grant wrote computer programs to help analyze te- 
lemetry data. Graham Skanes, Bill Warren, Brian 
McCleran, and David Schneider provided statistical 
advice. We appreciated the good spirits and field as- 
sistance provided by Duane Barker, Lorri Mitchell, 
Natalie Miller, and Wayne Chiasson. Bruce Cocker and 
Ed Thistle brought the tracking system back to life af- 
ter it had been damaged by lightning. The comments 
of three anonymous reviewers improved the paper.
