Heterogeneity in risk‐sensitive allocation of somatic reserves in a long‐lived mammal

Heterogeneity in risk‐sensitive allocation of somatic reserves in a long‐lived mammal

Abstract Food quality and availability, when combined with energetic demands in seasonal environments, shape resource acquisition and allocation by animals and hold consequences for life‐history strategies. In long‐lived species with extensive maternal care, regulation of somatic reserves of energy...
