INSERT INTO ... SELECT FROM ... ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE
MySQL will assume the part before the equals references the columns named in the INSERT INTO clause, and the second part references the SELECT columns.
INSERT INTO lee(exp_id, created_by, location, animal, starttime, endtime, entct,
inact, inadur, inadist,
smlct, smldur, smldist,
larct, lardur, lardist,
emptyct, emptydur)
SELECT id, uid, t.location, t.animal, t.starttime, t.endtime, t.entct,
t.inact, t.inadur, t.inadist,
t.smlct, t.smldur, t.smldist,
t.larct, t.lardur, t.lardist,
t.emptyct, t.emptydur
FROM tmp t WHERE uid=x
ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE entct=t.entct, inact=t.inact, ...
Although I am very late to this but after seeing some legitimate questions for those who wanted to use INSERT-SELECT
query with GROUP BY
clause, I came up with the work around for this.
Taking further the answer of Marcus Adams and accounting GROUP BY
in it, this is how I would solve the problem by using Subqueries in the FROM Clause

SELECT sb.id, uid, sb.location, sb.animal, sb.starttime, sb.endtime, sb.entct,
sb.inact, sb.inadur, sb.inadist,
sb.smlct, sb.smldur, sb.smldist,
sb.larct, sb.lardur, sb.lardist,
sb.emptyct, sb.emptydur

GROUP BY location) as sb
