  • The dataset includes life history, biometric and weather data collected for banded mongooses at Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda, in the period 2017-2020. The data includes a list of experimental individuals, in addition to more general information collected in the field regarding the mongooses life history, body mass measured daily in the field, biometric data collected during trapping events and weather data.

  • The dataset includes markers of oxidative state in banded mongooses at Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda, in the period 2017-2021. Data are: red blood cell concentrations of glutathione; blood plasma concentrations of malondialdehyde; blood plasma concentrations of protein carbonyls; red blood cell activity of total superoxide dismutase; and whole milk concentrations of malondialdehyde.

  • These data are data on the outcomes of contests between groups of banded mongooses in Mweya Peninsula, Uganda. Data were collected between 2000 and 2019. The data include information on group membership (number and sex of individuals, age, etc…) as well as physiological data (weight), genetic data (pedigree), and behavioural data (contest outcomes, eviction).

  • This dataset provides details about each time we observed two banded mongoose groups engaging in what ended up being lethal conflict at our field site (Mweya, Uganda) between 2000-2011. The dataset provides information about which group won the contest (measured by which group ran from the location of the fight), which individual died in the battle, whether that individual was in the losing or winning group, and the date. The purpose of this data was to estimate the proportion of mortalities which come from winning groups vs. losing groups.

  • This is a dataset on defensive behaviour in response to simulated intergroup conflict in banded mongooses, collected from a wild population of banded mongooses on the Mweya Peninsula, Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda between 2016-2017. We experimentally simulated conflict between rival social groups of banded mongooses and recorded data on behavioural responses including interaction with the stimulus, defensive behaviours such as standing upright, scent marking, and attacking, and the cohesion of behavioural responses within the group. These data were collected to examine collective defence behaviour in the face of intergroup conflict.
