Harem size should be measured by more than the sum of its parts: Phenology‐based measurements reveal joint effects of intrinsic and extrinsic factors on a polygamous herbivore under non‐stationary climatic conditions

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2024.
In our study we investigate harem size phenology and related variation in a large polygamous herbivore, the Przewalski horse, using a 15‐year dataset from an introduced population in Hortobágy National Park, Hungary. Our results demonstrate that intrinsic population processes can play a major role in regulating group size and counter the effects of ...
