- Correlation coefficient (β) and P-value for correlations between I. ricinus density of the three different life stages and availability of fallow deer (Dama dama), red deer (Cervus elaphus) and roe deer (Capreolus capreolus; model 1) or all deer species combined (model 2) as obtained with generalized linear mixed models with a negative binomial distribution and log link with a random intercept per vegetation type
