Boxplot of proportional volumes (PV) per diet category for both years combined (both) and individually for 2018 (n = 22) and 2019 (n = 34).
The red diamond represents the mean and the heavy line represents the median.

Average proportional volume (PV) and frequency of occurrence (FO) for all diet categories found in eastern quoll scats (n = 56).
Fig 3.
Log Odds Ratio comparing the frequency of occurrence (FO) of diet categories between years.
Bars (95% credible intervals) not overlapping zero indicate a difference between years. Eastern quoll is presented with all records (eastern quoll) and with records of 0.01 removed (eastern quoll 2).
