Mechanism of Dietary Variation of Grazing Yaks on Tibetan Plateau: The Role of Seasonal Heterogeneity of Resources. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Using DNA metabarcoding, we show that Tibetan yaks are highly selective foragers in the resource‐rich summer but switch to a diverse, generalist diet to survive the harsh winter. This flexible foraging strategy is driven by seasonal plant availability, providing strong support for optimal foraging theory and highlighting the critical need to protect ...
