IVI (%) as a function of the distance from the village boundaries. (a) Janajagaran BZCF: significant (p < 0.01), (b) Musharni Mai BZCF: significant (p < 0.05), (c) Radha Krishna BZCF: significant (p < 0.001), and (d) Parsa Wildlife Reserve: nonsignificant (p > 0.05). The solid lines in the figure indicate IVI (%) of S. robusta and the dotted lines indicate total IVI (%) of other species except for S. robusta.
