the graph for mice on the left has a break between .10 and .80. see the little squiggly thing? if that break was not there, the mice bar would be wayyyy higher than the other bars.

I don't think it's meant to be misleading.

Have to disagree. These particular researchers have a long history of pro-slug bias - at any cost.

Where will it end?

As long as it leads to more representation for the shrew then it might be a good thing in the end

Oooooh shit yeah it really does make it look a little closer that it was! Still, nice to know the mice (and occasional frog etc) were having a nice time
