Sites where dingoes had been controlled within the previous two years were characterized by low scent-marking activity, but abundance was similar at sites with and without control.
Sites where dingoes had been controlled within the previous 2 years were characterized by low scent-marking activity (Mann-Whitney Z = 1.97, p<0.05; Fig. 2), but abundance was similar between sites with and without control (Mann-Whitney Z = 1.16, p = 0.25; Fig. 2).

Our results in Experiment 2 clearly show that relatively low salience of the scent cues used as stimuli in Experiment 1 was not responsible for the lack of reliance of subjects on scent cues when relocating food.
By this line of thinking, certain ratios of hormones and their metabolites in the female body are associated with biological advantage, as well as with particular pheromonal scents and low W.H.R.'s.
Lewin, who now runs a company offering "financial crisis" tours of Wall Street, says if you pitch too low a number, colleagues might scent failure: Lippmann extracted a higher bonus after complaining that the bank's initial offer of $50m was too low.
In addition, the concentrations of species specific for human scent are extremely low, thus making their identification a challenging task.
On cold, dry mornings, smells huddle close to their sources and the scent-world is low and compact.
In 2007 dingoes were relatively abundant at Nantawarrinna but incidence of scent-marking was low (N = 18).
After Nantawarrinna was poison-baited, dingo abundance dropped to almost zero (Mann-Whitney IA: Z = 2.86, p<0.01; Fig. 4c) and scent-marking remained low (N = 4).
