Association of four ungulate species to DOL, DON and DOA. Vertical axis: the density of ticks at each site of 1200 m2. Please note the different scale of the y-axes. Horizontal axis: sum of encounter rates over four ungulate species (roe deer, fallow deer, red deer and wild boar). A dashed line illustrates the best-fit negative binomial model describing DOL (P = 3.8 × 10−8, slope = 4244.54), DON (P = 5.3 × 10−6, slope = 1660.76) or DOA (P = 1.6 × 10−3, slope = 86.212)
