Sexual segregation results in pronounced sex-specific density gradients in the mountain ungulate, Rupicapra rupicapra
Abstract Sex-specific differences in habitat selection and space use are common in ungulates. Yet, it is largely unknown how this behavioral dimorphism, ultimately leading to sexual segregation, translates to population-level patterns and density gradients across landscapes. Alpine chamois (Rupicapr...
