Red Deer: Behavior and Ecology of Two Sexes - Paperback

by T. H. Clutton-Brock (Author), F. E. Guinness (Author), S. D. Albon (Author)

Red Deer: Behavior and Ecology of Two Sexes is the most extensive study yet available of reproduction in wild vertebrate. The authors synthesize data collected over ten years on a population of individually recognizable red deer, usually regarded as conspecific with the American elk. Their results reveal the extent of sex differences in behavior, reproduction, and ecology and make a substantial contribution to our understanding of sexual selection.
