Fig. 5. Relationship between body mass and net cost of pedestrian (filled triangles, NCOTp) and burrowing (filled circles, NCOTb) transport for individual hopping mice, Notomys alexis. Unfilled symbols are mean NCOTb measurements for a variety of burrowing mammals taken from the literature (Vleck, 1979; Du Toit et al., 1985; Lovegrove, 1989; Seymour et al., 1998; Withers et al., 2000).
