Sympatry Increases Predation Risk for an Endangered Ungulate
We characterized predation risk for Peninsular bighorn sheep and southern mule deer across their ranges to understand how topography, habitat, forage, and prey habitat suitability affect where pumas are likely to predate both species. The presence of the second ungulate species increased predation risk for both species but had the greatest effect on ...
