In the published article, there was an error in Figures 2, 3 as published. The y-axes values for these figures had been calculated incorrectly. The corrected Figures 2, 3 and their captions appear below.

Figure 2

Figure 2

Predicted proportions of lying animals that had outstretched legs at different k-values across days. Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals of predicted proportions. Predicted proportions were calculated as predicted numbers divided by the average number of sheep lying at each time point (12.48).

Figure 3

Figure 3

Predicted proportions of animals lying with their head down that place their head on a conspecific at different k-values across days. Error bars represent 95% confidence intervals of predicted proportions. Predicted proportions were calculates as predicted numbers divided by the average number of sheep lying at each time point (6.69).
