Because the range of animals in Figure 1 spans well over five orders of magnitude (a factor of more than 100,000), from a little mouse weighing only 20 grams (0.02 kg) to a huge elephant weighing almost 10,000 kilograms, we are forced to plot the data logarithmically, meaning that the scales on both axes increase by successive factors of ten.
