Abstract

<p>Isotopes were used as an indicator of potential dietary differences among bears that tested positive or negative for exposure to each pathogen. Isotopes did not differ between time periods, so time period was not included as a factor in the comparisons. Variances were homogenous but δ<sup>13</sup>C were not normally distributed (Shapiro-Wilks test 0.98, p = 0.04).</p> <p>(DOCX)</p>
