- Legend: Effect of location on the occurrence of antibodies to Chlamydia spp. (model: χ2 = 31.85, df = 7, p < 0.001, N = 130) and N. caninum (model: χ2 = 33.15, df = 7, p < 0.001, N = 172) in European bison. Sex did not have a significant influence on the occurrence of Chlamydia spp., nor did age on N. caninum; therefore, these were excluded from the models in the backward elimination procedure (*statistically significant predictors)
